Can anyone explain the genius of the chess move whereby we have the chance to get a 60th seat ......

.............. and we pass it up.

Explain that to my feeble ****ing brain.

I know I'm not as smart as so many here who follow this shit more closely than me. I know I'm just a bulging eyed radical ****wit angry clown.

So elucidate the **** out of me.

What the hell is right with this?

Ha ha.

First up, the methamphetimine primitive from southern Mississippi:

1. are you talking about gregg?

didn't gregg say he wouldn't vacate his seat unless a repug was appointed to fill it?

How do you guarantee the 60 if that is the case?

2. In 2010, the Senate Seat in New Hampshire becomes an open seat....

With the Democratic Governor being the most likely shoo-In.

It's called increasing the size of the Democratic Senator count in the long run,
and it's called bringing a Republican that is more moderate than the current one.

3. Simple. There was no chance to get a 60th seat...at least, not without being evil bastards. Gregg would only go to Commerce with the assurance that a Republican would replace him. Thus, without that promise, he wouldn't have gone to Commerce.

So, the only way to get the 60th seat would have been to promise him that, then put in a Dem. anyway ... which then turns Gregg into a vicious enemy within Obama's cabinet.

4. The New Hampshire seat would have been a good contender for a 2010 D pickup anyway

No need to put another ****ing Repub in the cabinet, especially one who fundamentally opposes the mission of the department he is to head.

5. We never had any such chance.

Gregg wasn't leaving without an assurance that he wouldn't be replaced by a Democrat. The opportunity you're speaking of exists only in your imagination. Unless you wanted Lynch to lie to the guy, then go back on his word? That would have worked out GREAT for us in the long run, wouldn't it?

In the meantime, we get a more moderate vote in the position, and we don't have to run against a long time entrenched incumbent next election. Boo hoo?

6. They wouldn't take the job unless a Republican took their seat

So Obama must really want Gregg for some reason

8. Dems don't do lockstep remember. DU says that is a good thing.

Ooops, the Fat Che plops into the punch bowl.

franksolich agrees with the Polynesian nut primitive.

10. Why do DUers chase the delusion of a 60th seat as though it's some Holy Grail???

It's NOT a "filibuster-proof" majority ... NOT with the kind of DINOs eager to exploit and leverage their votes. No ****ing Way.

It's some of the most delusional crap I've read here in years. All that would happen is MORE repeated and sustained anger, resentment, and disappointment at the posturing ****s in the Senate ... on BOTH sides.

Ben Nelson?
Joe Lieberman?
(I could name several others. Does "Gang of Fourteen" ring a ****ING bell?)

It has got to be bad when even his fellow primitives are telling him how stupid he is. :-)

Well, I'm sure I'm not the only person who, when reading the sparkling husband primitive, gets the "picture" of a clown sitting on a commode in the basement.

I'm sure others have that impression, too, and it's the sparkling husband primitive's own fault.  He painted his own self-portrait.

It's just kind of hard, even for some primitives, to take a s itting clown seriously.

So far the obama administration has been a sit-com. I can't wait for the next setup/punchline.
