re: #414 Conservative Moonbat

Why is 60 votes relevant in the house?

Besides, just because she couldn’t get enough votes together for a bill to pass doesn’t make her an extremist. It makes her like every other Speaker of the House in the history of the US.

It makes her like every speaker of the house—except for every other speaker of the house. 60 votes is relevant to getting legislation passed in the Senate. This has always been true, and every previous speaker managed to be able to pass legislation that would end up passing the Senate.
