4. I don't see how we can get anything done if we don't.

Here’s the thing. Other than Court appointments, there’s very little that the Republicans can do that we can’t UNDO when we next control government. The laws we pass, on the other hand, are nearly impossible to undo. The Republicans controlled government for two years, and they couldn’t get rid of the ACA—because the American people like its provisions. So long as we make good laws that have the support of the people, our laws will stay on the books. Theirs can easily be repealed.

Just a thought.
