I would add that our Pubbie senators need to keep front and center, this ain't about them. They were sent there to do a job for the people that sent 'em -- that's us. The unprecedented gains in the last 3 election cycles should give 'em some additional backbone - we'll see. It could be they are so accustomed to being losers, they haven't gotten the hang of "winning" yet. Add to that, the Dims are a vicious bunch that are hell bent on socializing America. A more wild-eyed group we aren't likely to see in our lifetimes. Logical, rational, linear arguments won't, and can't, work on 'em. Raw constitutional power is what it will take, and our senators are on obligated to exercise it on our behalf.
Could the nuclear option precede a polar shift in the electorate? I'm betting it can and this scares the bejeebers out of the Dims. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch o' socialists.
Thanky fer the pink Meek.
