We don't need a "super majority" to act like a minority anyway

[dem mba]

so in that respect, this Coakley debacle means very little.

1. LOL, sad but true.

[Naturyl]

2. Very true.

5. Let's be honest. Even having a "super majority" wasn't really doing anything

An advantage that's not used is the same as not having it in the first place.

Aside from the media hoopla and the teabaggers thinking this is some great sign, I don't really see how it will change anything.

Oh, we'll *hear* how now NOTHING can proceed because of it, but it's clear that this was already the case before. It just provides another excuse for the weak.
