Will the Democratic Party become the party of NO?
Now that the GOP has taken control of the House, they are going to be forced to produce legislation, instead of sitting back and voting no on everything the Democrats pushed forward. Will the DNC take the same stance and vote against everything the Republicans bring up in the house, and if it makes it to the Senate, simply vote NO?

2. If the Republicans steer us back into the same damn ditch as before,
I sure as hell hope we say NO.

4. Hahahahahahaha
No. Dems will likely be scared of anything that sounds remotely like a threat from the pukes and go along with them b/c we live in a "center-right country." Quel que. Man, if people thought the "Professional Left" was tough on dems before, just you wait. While I hold their feet to the fire, I will be ROASTING pukes. Bring it.

6. That is not how the game is played.
they will "compromise" because that is their role in the game of good cop bad cop.

7. We just told the Dems in Congress that we don't have their back ...
that we won't stick with them, and vote in big numbers, when its been hard for them to get things done because the GOP has blocked everything they did try to do.

Instead, we tend to ignore the obstruction, and blame the Dems for not getting the things we want done, done.

I would not be expecting them to move further to the left.

btw ... I hope I'm wrong.
