Reply #18: We should make this THE MOST productive lame duck house session! [View All]

And have us get some very strategic bills passed by the House that we could pass along to the new Senate in 2011 that could "fix" the fillibuster so it would no longer allow the minority to block us then. Then perhaps we'd get some things done in that short period of time. And then if Republicans throw CRAP at us that doesn't work afterwards, we can build momentum to get the House back in 2012.

The next week DU should really sit down and try to figure out which bills we want to get passed that won't go through in the next two bills otherwise with a Republican House and get them through the House NOW... And we should lobby HEAVILY on the phone now to those still there that if they want our vote and to those going out if they want our support in the future, that they will do this to help save America now. That could help revive their careers in other places later.
