I wonder if pubs were to gain control of one or both Houses of Congress, if pubs will reach out and

Our Party is like Neville Chamberlain, the GOP is like Genghis Khan.

3. Here's how they plan to work with him. They will send House bills to the Senate that seem moderate

such as social security privatization. The Dems will cave and pass the Senate version and Obama will sign it. The is the way they plan to make Obama a one term President because after the next two year none of us will vote for him.

The only alternative is for the Dems to block everything in the House and try to pass progressive legislation in the Senate.

5. Back of the bus
comments do not lend themselves to a group of people folding on principals in the name of bi-partisanship. It was a clear signal, that wasn't going to be the case, imo.
