Finally, it’s over. Coleman’s out, Franken’s in, and the Democrats have a fillibuster proof majority. Now there’s no reason for Democrats to bitch and moan about needing sixty votes to get anything done because, guess what, we’ve got them. Now the question is are sellouts like Lincoln and Pryor and the Blue Dogs in the House like Ross going to hold things up? The answer to that is probably yes. Ok….not probably….definately. But there’s something Democrats should be aware of. If they don’t deliver then we can’t make the argument that we need to keep electing and reelecting Democrats and our majorities will be in danger. For me, that’s one big reason to get Democrats like Lincoln to shape up.
Also, do you really add Arlen Specter in with those votes? Sure, he may help with healthcare, but it will be tough when it comes to LGBT issues, fiscal policy, and other various things.
Going to call lincoln tomm.
I don't count half the senate Democrats in with those votes….
Don’t you know that it is high time to receive the loans, which would realize your dreams.
