SEIU warns House Dem: Vote yes or we’ll primary you
hotair ^ | 03/12/10 | Allahpundit

Posted on 03/12/2010 6:23:15 PM PST by blueyon

The Democrats can’t afford to let this thing get to the recess without a vote — the risk of another round of angry townhalls is too great — so every last stop will be pulled out over the next week. This is just the beginning.

The Nazis used to pull this kind of crap all the time. The Dems need to tell the jack-booted, SEIU brownshirts to FO. If I was a ‘RAT, I’d be buying me a Louisville Slugger of my own and keep it handy.

Well these guys should remember that union membership is about 7% (IIRC) of the workforce. Unions mean alot for fund raising but sqat at the polls, and there will be lot of motivated voters at the polls in November I think.

Let them primary. Only the far left would vote for someone with HCR blood on their hands. Public abortions, death panels and Complete Lives System aren’t exactly things that demonstrate a committment to preservation of life, but rather the senseless and dispicable taking of it.

A primary would be the lesser of two evils.Either they win,or lose and don’t have to bother to wait until November to realize that they’re done or lose and run as independents in November and if they’re district is anti HusseinCare (as most are) they at least have a chance.

Obama and his Leftist handlers have put not only the American people in an uncomfortable position of having to fight against our own government for what is our true heritage, but have also placed their own between a rock and a hard spot this coming election cycle.

There’s going to be some pretty hard feelings, and some reactionary votes that aren’t going to go Obama’s way me thinks.

May be wishful thinking, but nobody likes being played.

This crapola is about to pass and the only hope to save our nation will rest with the states passing laws prohibiting the Feds from imposing the mandates and the USSC ruling this law unconstitutional.

Half of my UAW guys vote conservative already.
This might just bring in the other half.

Here in Michigan we have several GOP state legislators who are now owned by the SEIU and teachers unions.

GOP Senators, SEIU Taxpayer Giveaways, Campaign Cash and More, OH MY!

Being a Michigan politician almost requires some union relationships but the SEIU ain't the UAW by a long shot.

If it is actually brought to a vote, the Dems who vote against will be essentially leaving the party permanently. This means, Pelosi will only move it to the floor if she KNOWS she has the 216 she needs (because there is no point in creating Republicans in exchange for nothing).

Obviously, she doesn’t have 216 yet.

I don’t agree with Allahpundit. I’m guessing the Dems aren’t gonna get there. It’s been almost a year and they have been LOSING votes along the way, not gaining them.

Maybe I’m wrong. But I’m saying they ain’t gonna get it.

Our retort should be, “Vote no or we’ll lynch you.”

They play hardball, we play hardball.
