Not exactly compelling examples.
And there's never been a 60 vote threshold for SCOTUS justices. The 60 vote threshold is to break a filibuster.
In the past 8 years, Sotomayor (68-31) and Kagan (63-37) - not as partisan as now. Butthurt - I don't think so. In the end, Gorsuch will be on the Supreme Court. Hopefully, Kennedy will announce retirement this summer, and Trump will nominate another 40-something conservative to the SC.

Will be hilarious when the democrats regain the senate and they put in an ultra far left justice to piss these gots off when one of these old hags die off.
Yeah it is butthurt son. LOL Kagan got a whopping 4 GOP votes and you're whining about the DNC being partisan. You teabaggers started this and now you gots want to play the victim card.
Considering he will be confirmed tomorrow I don't see any republican victims here.
The tears all seem to be coming from the left.
Lol we have 4 years to take Ginsberg quail hunting...
It was a huge mistake not giving Obama's man at least a hearing.
Apparently the presidency has a magic cutoff date on SC nominees. You don't get a full term. It's the new rule.
They will ibe given license to destroy. And you think they are crying... They are daring and don't care. They get to punch below the belt later. This is good for no one.
black jamaican sockpuppet has done plenty of whining in this thread.
Meh the filibuster has never been a friend to the DNC.
Well if they did better in the election and won they might have had a majority in the senate.
Certainly not me melting down if that's who you're talking about. My point was dems would do same thing if cir stances were flipped actually.
Who the f ever coined the term "nuclear" for this lazy bull ?
Why doesn't the media term Mitch McConnel went into "Super Jerk off mode"?
People out here working for a living while these phucksticks are jacking off.
Oh dear...
How was it a huge mistake?
Nobody except political junkies even noticed.
Democrats swore the Republicans would be smashed in the 2016 elections because of it and it simply didn't happen.
Same thing will happen in 2018. Nobody in middle america gives a .
Giving the opposition an excuse to make the process completely partisan.
As for the rest, Same could be said of any topic on this board. Until the vast number of mining jobs created by the coal industry fling us into compe ive nothingness. And in 2020... uhohs at this rate. I know the stock market rising has got the ex-miners all excited.
Ginsberg is 84 and showing signs of dementia.. Think she can hold out for 4 years?
Trump's approval rate is in the thirties. You think people aren't noticing how terrible a president he is?
That has very little to do with Senate elections which is the topic. Democrats have three times the senators up for reelection in 2018 (25!) than the Republicans do. They not only have to win all those seats but knock off 5 of 8 Republicans up for reelection to get control.
How does an unpopular president have nothing to do with senate elections? When Obama's numbers were at Trump's level the Democrats lost Massachusetts of all places. With Obama's numbers like Trump's the DNC got massacred in the 2010 midterms. When Bush's numbers were like this the GOP got massacred in the 2006 midterms. Trump is now the face of Washington, not Obama. And people hate Washington, especially right at this moment. It's pretty early to call victory.
I'm not calling victory. Just saying its a a steep hill for Democrats to climb.
Fix the VA, get some tax simplification/reform, tweak Obamacare, and the economy keep kicking ass and his popularity may not be so bad in 2 years.
I agree the guy is a .
He has been a really ineffective president and the GOP won't have the benefit of being able to run against Clinton like they could in 2016. The only bad guy the public is going to really recognize in the 2018 races is Trump. I think it's definitely more likely the GOP retains control of the senate, but I don't think it would be a shock to see them lose their majority. Just like I wasn't shocked by Trump's win. The states aren't a bunch of coin flips just like they weren't in last year's election, politics is all national. It's why the DNC should continue to keep pushing the Russian collusion investigation no matter what. Just like the GOP kept pushing with Benghazi and it killed Clinton's favorability ratings despite there being nothing there.I'm not calling victory. Just saying its a a steep hill for Democrats to climb.

The tide will turn.
Thanks for a world in which the Supreme Court will one day fully recognize 13 different sex types in humans.
You will be dead with Thread, but think of the grand children.
I wonder if there are 13 different sex types in other species too or is this something special only for humans? And I guess my grandchildren will be taught about these 13 different sex types in kindergarten - better prepare myself to homeschool them too.
its funny with how big an issue this gender has become, people still fail to differentiate sex and gender
It's you rightwingnutjobs and Christian Taliban haters of LGBT who made it an issue.
