If we had been willing to nuke shanny Feb 2019 #4

Exactly how, with R's holding Senate & refusing Garland a hearing or vote, might we have prevailed? hlthe2b Feb 2019 #6

Why were Rs able to take the Senate? shanny Feb 2019 #12

Gerrymandering for the House, Voter Suppression for Senate. Perhaps you might want to google that... hlthe2b Feb 2019 #18

Very helpful in Senate races and governorships. shanny Feb 2019 #20

oh honey shanny Feb 2019 #24

Oh, honey, you STILL haven't answered why exactly Merrick Garland would have been confirmed hlthe2b Feb 2019 #25
