I don't know that I want my Senators (Menendez and Lautenberg) worrying about that - or if those people can lose their seat the next go round. I want them to vote NJ Progressive without ANY regard for some Senator somewhere else losing their job.

Here's the thing - the Senate has a mandate - and it is to offset nonsense from the House. And if the house gives them something worth passing - pass it.

We've got to get off the election junkie crack and get down to rebuilding America.
