I don’t think this is wise...there is too many problems right now. If McConnell makes no effort to work with Dems to solve problems that the parties can agree on...the Dems will win a filibuster proof majority in 2010. Americans are sick of politics. The party that plays politics while the country is in deep trouble will lose big.

You’re kidding, right? I(f the Rep don’t work with the libs they will have to pay the price in 2010? You mean like the Dem’s had to pay a price in 2006 and 2008 for working with the Republicans who were then in control?

What are you thinking?

bronxboy you are not a conservative nor any resemblance of one, but clearly a very clever disruptor able to disguise yourself for 4 years.

Everyone should read his/her posting history on his/her home page and decide for yourself.

History says that in the 2nd year election of a presidents term his party loses seats. The more the out of power party opposes the in power party the better it does. There is just one exception in the last 80 years and that was in 2002 and the President was George W. Bush

Republicans did all they could to block Bill Clinton in his first two years as president. They made Clinton change his order on homosexuals in the military and they killed HILLARY CARE and stopped BILL CLINTON Dead in his tracks. They did it by filibustering nearly every Clinton and Democratic proposal put up for a vote. You may not know that but every senator and house member does.

The result was that in 1994 the Republicans won both the House and Senate for the first time in 40 years. You may not be aware of that but every member of the house and senate is well aware.

That is why the Republican members of the senate will stay together and vote as a unit.
