The States: Doing Their Own Thing...

Re: The States: Doing Their Own Thing...

Senators, according to JFK, were supposed to be ambassadors from the State to the Federal establishment. Are they or are they now creatures of K Street?

You know this is only a talking point because it currently would benefit the GOP, since they control more state legislatures since the 2010 reapportionment, right?

If the Dems pick up states in 2020, or SCOTUS rules political gerrymandering unconstitutional, the GOP will stop arguing this.

People on here were a big no because she's a celebrity but if you want a real progressive Cynthia Nixon is the ticket.

I'd vote for her in heartbeat.

"Politicians in pursuit of the black vote tend to go to Sylvia’s in Harlem. Have you made a stop there yet?"

"No. But Reverend Sharpton and I will be going." :eek:

Can we stop pandering to the Reverend Al already? Geesh (and same goes for Cuomo if he has as well).

Yeah, but don't worry. It's not on principle or anything. It's because he's f-cked them into trouble passing their agenda.

Wait a minute. That's what we rich white men do. We may oppose things for our own personal reasons. But if they're going to be here, and if we can make a buck off it, sign me up.

If you believe Fox News they're recruiting ISIS members at the border and giving them voter registrations :D
