I see our political landscape looking at a substantial change in the next couple decades. This administration has shown how poorly the Dems. do when they are put in charge. They had an unassailable majority for two years and accomplished virtually nothing except to make things worse. I think that this was the swan song for the Dems. and they are on the verge of dropping to a permantent status of minority party. But I also see the emergence of the TP splitting the conservative side of the aisle. The Reps. are going to end up being the "moderates" and the TP will end up being the conservatives. This will give the Dems. some leverage on those occasions where they can court the Reps. on specific issues. We've seen Congress as a whole moving further and further left and I think that people are seeing that this is not a good thing. With the TP rising up, we're going to start seeing a shift back to our conservative roots (here's the part where our resident liberals start making comments like "Back to the times when women were locked in the kitchen, blacks were locked on the plantation and homosexuals were tarred and feathered for being 'sodomites'.") and a shift back towards fiscal solvency.
You obviously do not understand our congress and how a minority party can filibuster. Nor how badly the Republicans have abused that feature since 2008.

Nice of you to ignore all the filibusters used by the Dems. But then we are talking about "those who cannot be spoken against" so why even bother trying to show you that you're FOS.

And yours always were. So what do we do now? Stick our tongues out at each other? That would be mature.

First, I don't ever go to right wing site. And I also don't go to left wing sites. My complete internet viewing consists of Facebook, Hotmail and here. That's about it.
