Title: If The Democrats Lose In 2010...............
Post by: Ptarmigan on July 16, 2010, 08:24:03 PM
If the Democrats lose in 2010 Election, I wonder if we might see them lock themselves in their office to protest the election, in their office come January 2011. I wonder if we are going to see the Dems to everything to cling to power if they lose.

I don't think so --

But I do expect a ton of crap to get dumped upon us between the election and the swearing in

Gotta agree with this.  Will the Republicans have the guts to defund the proposals that the Dems try to pass in the "lame-duck" session?  I'm not sure, even though I hope they do.  The Tea Party is going to need to make a big impact this fall.  Thing is, the Obamessiah has a $1 trillion slush fund granted to him by this Congress.  It's going to set up some interesting Constitutional challenges in the next two years.

What also wouldn't surprise me would be SEIU thrusting themselves into this.  Remember Andy Stern's statement about "the persuation of power?"  Expect a fair number of death threats, or threats in general, on new Republican legislators and their families.  There may be actual violence.  We're in for an "interesting" couple of years.

Also, I wonder if they will take every election result to court, like in 2000.

Isn't that the way they do it? Somethimes I think of them as the child at the park when they lose the game they take their ball and go home
