Elections have consequences

No, they don't. We got this very bad Supreme Court with a majority of Republican appointees. Republicans got majorities beyond their wildest expectations, with voters expecting them to stop Obama's agenda. What did they do with those majorities? Support Obama on Obamatrade, when even his own party wouldn't.

We're worse off than we were before the Republicans had control of the US Senate. And a lot of very bad things got started when GWB had majorities in the HOR and US Senate.

The reason the US is now in this very steep decline is that elections no longer have consequences.

I would say that your math doesn't add up. Go figure.

“We’re worse off than we were before the Republicans had control of the US Senate.”

The most profound and true words I’ve heard in days.

Elections do have consequences. But you have to start with the primaries. You have to start before the voting counts. It is imperative that we now have to get Those who appoint judges on our side.
