Because of Ben Nelson NE, voting for obamacare, republicans picked up what was a conservative democrat seat. Bob Kerrey (once governor of NE) tried to run against Fischer and lost by a landslide. I think this next election will see the republicans pick up seats held by so-called conservative democrats. People are mad at what is going on. From the results of the primary mayors race in Omaha, I think we will have a republican mayor. We will go from red to bright lipstick red. Obama is going to be blamed for democrats losing next election. I hope so anyway.

It won’t matter. She’ll get re-elected. ACORN is still pretty active down here, especially in the N.O. area, her base.

Landrieu Under 50 Percent in New Poll
Louisiana politics led off Politico’s “Morning Score” today with a new Senate race poll and new plans for Jeff Landry.
The Harper poll has Sen. Mary Landrieu leading Congressman Bill Cassidy, 46-41 percent, and BESE Chairman Chas Roemer, 46-33 percent. That Landrieu remains under 50 percent, as in recent polls, points to vulnerability, says Politico. Also, that 56 percent of those surveyed did not have an opinion of Cassidy and 64 percent did not have one of Roemer means the Republicans have room to grow in favorability. What should be concerning to Landrieu is that in a generic ballot test, 46 percent said they would prefer a Republican candidate to 40 percent who wanted a Democrat.

Sen. Mark Pryor (D., Ark.) told reporters that he wanted to “see how this develops” before deciding whether to join the Republican filibuster. “I know that many senators are working to try to get to some sort of compromise,” he said

B_tard there is NO COMPROMISE on 2nd Amendment.

Aren’t these idiot senators supposed to follow their oath to support the Constitution? They should be in prison.

"I suspect that the other Dems in conservative states will adopt the same strategy." Well, at least then we'll have them on the record and they'll have to own it. It will never pass in the House anyway. I'd enjoy watching these dems squirm and ultimately go down. TC

You're sure about that?

You can't imagine a situation where Boehner allows the bill to come to the floor -- as a grand gesture of bi-partisanship? And all 200 Democrats vote for it? And they're joined by 17 gutless RINOs (the House is currently split 232-200, with 3 vacancies) -- because "we've got to do something!"

LOL He's about to pi$$ his drawers! He may lose even if he supports the filibuster but he's gone for sure if he doesn't.

Of course I’m not sure of it, but I’d bet every Congressman who faces re-election next year will run screaming from any gun control bill. So I’m confident.

If the bill comes to an actual vote Reid has eough votes to pass it in the Senate without Landrieu.

I do believe that ObamaCare was brought to the floor where it would take 51 votes to defeat it. All under the same guise that McCainiac says, it deserves discussion.

There won't be any discussion and no amendments, we have been had again.

Remember the cheering squad that formed here when Dirty Harry pulled the witch from Friso's bill, some of us suggested that it was a little early to cheer.

The degree of dictatorial control that the Democrat party and its minions exert over the elected Democrats has substantially increased since 1994. See Obamacare.

Couple that with the gutless RINO segment of the party and the mindless drift in GOP leadership and I fear we've got trouble.

Moreover, it strikes me that the Democrat leadership has discovered something. They can afford to take a giant step forward with their agenda -- even if it costs them an election (as Obamacare did). But their Republican opponents are so feckless that they can be confident about returning to power in fairly short order...and commencing to build on their earlier triumph.
