Up Or Down. Democratic Party's Party. 3.19.10
.

Democratic members of Congress and a Democratic President have been elected to GOVERN. And govern you _MUST_. This is and has been the Democratic Party's party.

The members of the Democratic Party who have exhausted every possible excuse trying to avoid doing what the people sent them to do are not going to get away with their actions. It is a shame, you really could have done so much better.

Bring the major legislative action on Health Care to an "Up Or Down - Majority Rules" vote. Vote it up. Govern on it! Should any other piece of Democratic legislation be threatened with a filibuster by any one, the Democratic Party response MUST be "Majority rules, bring it to the floor. Give the piece of legislation an up or down vote."

Govern and the people will support the leadership.

November is just around the corner. Which way is the Democratic Party going, up or down?

1. Someone needs to learn the rules of the Senate..
It just doesn't work that way. In the House yes, that is how it is done, but the Senate lives under arcane rules.
