2. Well, hopefully we can stop that from happening. The question is how. Burying our heads in

IF we do proceed unchanged, then we need to proceed full speed ahead
in hopes Barack can veto anything the Pukes try to pass next year.

There is no middle ground between now and November.

6. If you are afraid of that
you should check the demographics of the Senate Class III.

It's nearly impossible for them to take a net gain of more than three seats, and that requires a perfect storm.
