Nothing will suppress dem midterm turnout like dems refusing to filibuster
Edited on Tue Jul-19-05 08:03 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
Repukes hope to appoint and confirm 2 supreme court justices with no filibuster from democrats before the midterm elections because nothing will suppress democratic turnout more than spineless democrats who didn't filibuster right wing PUKE replacements for 2 justices.

Was it a smart gamble to assume democrats would be their spineless selves?

1. They've got limited filibuster power
Or the gang of 14 will disband, and they could lose the filibuster power entirely. They won't filibuster Roberts because he does not yet appear to be insane...The next one they might, we'll see.
