56. a few States back east elect radical Republicans
and you guys say that means they 'own' the House and 'deserve to'. What about the States and entire regions that did not contribute a single Republican to the 2010 mix? Are we not represented? Did we not 'earn' representation, or is it voided because we elected Democrats?
You might notice that it is not typical in politics to look at a majority held by the opposition in a single chamber and declare that NO ONE ELSE gets a say, that the one chamber majority 'OWNS' the congress, and that all legislation must be made to please them, and in no way to please the bulk of the nation that did not elect Radical Republicans.
65% of the radical Republican Freshmen come from a single region of the Country. Time to deal with that.
