Abolish the 9th circuit court of appeals and send a blistering nuke bomb to the federal judicial branch saying do your job or else. This is a US Constitutional power given to congress by the founders of our nation. It is to be used on judges that abuse their positions and hurt the reputation of the court. The whole 9th circuit is a joke.

Also simply repeal Obama care with a congressional super majority to override a veto. People forget that even if we don't win the Presidency the Congress can actually pass legislation on it's own if they have a super majority to over rule the veto.

Too much focus on the Presidency not enough focus on the congress and how close the GOP is to a super majority.

A Republican congressional supermajority (as in 67 seats in the Senate, and 290 seats in the House) is impossible to win in 2016. The Democrats only have 10 seats up in the Senate and the GOP would have to win 13 seats.

Getting either number of seats in either chamber is boderline impossible for either party regardless of the election or elections. Outside of very extreme circumstances.

I'm pretty convinced the GOP is maxed out in the House save for a small handful of seats (like maybe 5 or 6)

What people forget is there there are moderate Dems to when Obamacare is failing will have to chose to between a fix and letting it fail and hurt millions of people. Same choice they had in 2010 and they'd break for the GOP or basically lose their seat in congress like all the other dems colleagues did.

There's comes a point where if enough people are about to be hurt and the GOP controls congress and is just a few votes shy of overruling the veto, that congress reps will HAVE to switch sides. Especially the new ones. 2010 is sharply in their minds. It's not about getting the super majority it's about getting as close to it as possible. Btw.. there was 1 independent that will be voting with the GOp so they only need 12. This is BEFORE 2016 elections where they might only need 3-6.

That will end in 2016. The people have had about enough of the shenanigans of this rightwingnut Congress.

You mean this congress that has passed hundreds of bills when Reid congress passed 1 or 2 for an entire 4 years? Yeah, ok. Sorry i had to finish you off.

Angus King votes with Democrats 90% of the time, he has very little in common with the Republican majority, particularly with social issues.

Angus King - Ballotpedia

He's brought up often as a swing vote, he really isn't. Manchin or Donnelly are swingier then King. He does lean center right fiscally though.

Which what I described above he's be more likely to swing the GOPs way more than a moderate democrat, and there will be dems that will swing. You just named 3.

No, he's really not, he's a progressive socially and a moderate fiscally. There's a select few items he votes with the Republicans on, and everything else he's with the Democrats pretty darn firmly.

On a different note, I kinda agree with you on splitting up the 9th Circuit Court, it's just way too big. Give California it's own court circuit and then leave the 9th with the rest.

If you demon-straight you are willing to break ranks on good legislation you will always consider it. So, yes he is. I agree with you about giving California it's own and separating the rest. It's a major act by congress but well within their authority and with how the supreme court has ruled a message needs to be sent. The GOP would love to send this message.

Do you understand what a supermajority is?
 
Republicans are incapable of passing the simplest legislation....why would anyone think they can get anything done?

Nothing is going to change if a democrat is elected next year. They will still be dividing the country. They will still be running the country into the ground on the pretext of AGW and immigration. They will still sell the working man down the tubes. And when I say they I mean Congress where it doesn't really matter who is in the majority.

Holy crap they just kissed obama's ass and got Obamatrade passed are you not paying attention? Oh right it would be hard to condemn the Republicans over Obamatrade without condemning Obama and we know you ain't gonna do that jake.

Unless you give a good example of why I will treat this as a temper tantrum from a child.

The trade bills is a good bill that the GOP wanted. The dems didn't want it because they are too liberal.

How do you know it is a good bill, either tell us what you like about it, that is actually in it or I will write your post off as one from a partisan hack.
 
This shit isn't going to stop. The republicans will still cave on what the socialist's want and rake in the cash for doing so. There is no GOP to do list other than make fake votes to make you think they are against what they have previously voted for.

There's no reason to hold two conventions this cycle if Bush gets nominated. They are both the same. The only choice if people vote for this is obie with a pussy or obie with another shrunken dick. Hill or Bush, both just obie for another four years.
