    If the Democrats take the House but only by a tiny number of seats the GOP moderates will be able to cut deals with Nancy as virtually any vote will always peel off a few Dems because of local interests. As Minority Leader Ryan can claim credit for actually accomplishing things for once, and always sift out some gold dust to help particular members in his caucus. All of a sudden it will become important to make kissy kissy with Ryan. The Freedumb Caucus will be caught in their own trap, unable to have any flexibility because they've portrayed not only the Dems by even the GOP moderates as Satan. They'll be powerless, literally, and unless they stop holding their breath Ryan can simply shut them out from any useful committee slots.

      I know. I'm just saying, if the 108th GOP had a Daniel Webster or a Sam Rayburn they would have a path to burning the rot off their stem.

        If this sounds familiar well it should. It's how the Freedumb Caucus defenestrated Boehner. 42 members of Congress (9.7%) are holding up the entire US government again and the rest of the GOP are too gutless to tell them "siddown you fat motherf----!"
        The caucus you hate is what the people voted for. It's about high time we get the corrupt establishment the heck outta there. I would have thought you'd be pleased with the removal of Böhner...

              Yes, because all those things are the essential characteristics of Naziism...

              How about: hyper-nationalism, anti-intellectualism, provocative militarism, an obsession with the "threat" of racial minorities..?

                You're only pushing my point even further. But hey, it's OK if there's a D next to the name...

                  Good news Republicans. Pubic disapproval of your Congressional caucus has dropped below 80%. At this rate you'll edge out head lice by the election.

                    And public approval of their own Congressman has gone up 50% with the American people.

                    The cycle continues.

                    FYI, my Representative sucks. My two Senators I like but I have some major issues with both of them.

                        My Rep bought his seat. He's an idiot with a (D). He replaced a guy who was an idiot and literally insane, and with an (R).

                          My Rep didn't buy his seat. My district is solidly red, meaning my Charlie cat could run as a Republican and win.

                            The (R) he beat in the last election may have been a better choice. It was very close in a supposedly safe district.

                              Our chance was the primary and we blew it.
