The same party who has a countless and growing number of threads about getting rid of the electoral college are now afraid that those wascally wepublicans might want to go meddling in the Constitution:

One more state goes Red next year they can call constitutional convention and rip apart Constitution

Last week on Thom Hartmann he said next year if the Rs take one more state bringing it to 34, they can have a constitutional convention and rewrite the constitution. Taking out the good parts like peoples welfare and freedom of the press. I asked a local poly sci Professor about this. He kind of poo poo-ed it saying it can happen but has never happened before. I said but we have never had a president Trump before. Doesn't he think that is what the Rs are after.....no answer. I ended by saying We live in Wisconsin, what Walker has done to WI the Rs will now do to the entire country. They don't know this, we do. Local WI media protected Walker. I can only hope the national press media, I cannot count on the television machine to do this, WILL. As you see they are obsessed with Hamilton, and Ivanka hawking her $10Grand bracelet she wore on tv, etc....Trump is tweetering again, so they are following that smokescreen. PAY ATTENTION AMERICANS. We could end up a 3rd world country with a ripped apart Constitution. Damn terrifying.

5. What Can We Begin To Do Today To Prevent That From Happening?.....

How can we turn some of the Red States back to blue and prevent any additional Blue states from going Red.

We need to start that today and not wait around till next year.

Also - this may have been mentioned on Thom Hartmann's show - but this needs to be communicated to the American People broadly with all the implications and dangers. This all has to happen sooner rather than later - lest we get taken by surprise again like we were a couple of Tuesdays ago.

Oh, oh, oh!  I have an idea!  How about more Trump protests into the spring, and then more occupooper protests?!  That'll show us!

Want some suggestions?  This is just off the top of my head:

Quit treating us conservatives like we are stupid and have lepresey.
Quit being so damned condescending
Quit calling us racist, misogynist, and all the other ists just because we disagree with you.

The big ones though are quit running on a national platform that mirrors the communist party of America's platform, start questioning the science behind globull warming and quit trying to turn this country into something it damn well ain't!!!

You finally did accomplish something you liberal dummie dubmasses. You finally pissed off a good majority of quiet, ordinary  Americans and we took it out on your ass at the ballot box in a big league way. 

Embrace the obumbles suck dummie.  He even stiffed you on the tip after he gave you the woody in all your orifices.

2. That's the plan

Did anyone ask mal about her confidence that The SHREW would win? If mal ever got her crystal ball repaired and calibrated she'd cast it out for "trolling".

Libs and Progs won't see the difference between could and would. Of course, that would require them to acknowledge that good intelligent people could have very different beliefs than theirs. That would be a serious blow to their worldview.

Here are my two predictions on what will happen if, come January 2019, the Rs control the legislatures and governorships of 34 or more states:

* Nothing, of what DU-folk and other Progs profess to fear;

* DU-folk and other Progs will either ignore this, or credit their silly rantings and whinings for "stopping" the Rs' nefarious plan.

Um, libs are the ones who view the Constitution as a "Living document" that can be reinterpreted or changed in any way they see fit.
This is why they regularly try to impede on people's right to bear arms, imply that those who disagree with them (i.e. Tea Partiers) are not protected by Freedom of Speech, and seek to pass laws which go directly against people's right to Freedom of Religion.

Don't forget, they'll imply that the R's are still planning on doing those nefarious things, but that they're doing it in really subtle, dog- whistle kind off ways.

That reminds me. I need to order a Dog-Whistle Transceiver-Amplifier. "They" never sent me one, whoever "they" are.

I was afraid of that. I think "they" screwed up and sent those Dog-Whistle Transceiver-Amplifiers to Lib/Prog political operative - pols, activists, and MSM-folk. That would explain why they are the only ones who can hear the "Dog-Whistles".

Three, out of four, elections and running.  2018 doesn't look very good for you, (D)Ullards.  Consider DEMExit.  Maybe Tierra del Fuego will take you?

But wait, isn't The Constitution a living document, and old and outdated? Or is it suddenly sacred again?
I'm getting confused...
