Winning control of the Senate this year is just the first necessary step in saving the nation.
If the Democrats remain in control of the Senate, then there will be nothing that Cruz or any other conservative Senator can do to prevent the confirmation of every far left wing liberal judge that Obama wants to appoint. Obama's left wing judicial appointments will be legislating from the bench for the next 30 years.
If the Republicans take over the Senate this year, then even though there are a lot of RINOs, conservative Senators will at least have a chance to filibuster Obama's left wing appointments.
The next vital step is to elect a conservative President and for the Republicans to hold onto the Senate and the House in 2016. It will then be possible to reverse almost everything that Obama has done (though his judicial appointments will go on legislating).
Justices Scalia and Kennedy will both turn 80 in 2016. Thomas will turn 70 in 2018. The next President is almost certain to get to replace at least one of these three, probably two, maybe all three.
Look at every 5/4 decision that has gone the right way in the past decade. Every single one of those decisions will be reversed if Kennedy, Scalia or Thomas is replaced with a liberal. The 1st Amendment will be found to protect only speech that liberals like, the 2nd Amendment will be found to protect nothing, and the 10th Amendment will be written out entirely.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
” .... the first necessary step in saving the nation.”
Yep. If republicans have control of the senate for Obama’s last two years, they’ll at least be able to control the agenda in both houses of congress.
And, you’re correct, if they appoint the next three judges, this nation is toast.
