I officially don't CARE about 60 seat majority in US Senate
Advertisements [?]
I know the Dems are going to piece together sizable majorities on a lot of popular programs and changes that will show goodwill to the American people. It will be a case where the senate will count the votes and make sure they have soft support where they need it from some GOP like Snowe and Cox in Maine.

Why do I say this? Because I would rather not poison the air with long protracted fight for a potentially MEANINGLESS 60th senate seat. AND because if a person goes into governance with that premise, it becomes way easier for Kennedy, Reid, Schumer and others to tell Lieberman to FUCK OFF.

There is PLENTY of muscle to get the things done that we need done.
