How the GOP Rigs the Game
"Through gerrymandering, voter suppression, and legislative tricks, the Republican Party has managed to hold onto power while more and more Americans reject their candidates and their ideas."

Thank God the majority of the Democrat senators executed the famous The Nuclear Option last Thursday by partially changing the Senate's 60 votes to end a filibuster's rule to a simple majority only regarding federal judges (excepting the Supreme Court and administration appointees).
Ole. Sen. Harry Reid (D. Nevada). Majority leader is a former boxer, you know. Great fighting spirit, champ, and all the Democrats! Hurrah! Kudos!
Our good friends, Shields and Brooks, are denying the current politikical reality (described above by Mr. Dickinson) and also by this blogger. Bemoans the future Senate rancor! Heck, the Republicans long ago (2008) personified in their minority leader Mitch McConnell (R. Kentucky), declared their mission to destroy Barack H. Obama's presidency. Their declared war is fiercely fought. Fighting on all fronts! Against our Commander in Chief Obama!
Thank you gallant profile in courage, gentleman!
Give 'em hell, Harry!
