re: #852 SixDegrees

State Dems have already changed the rules for Senate elections - twice - to favor Kennedy’s wishes. They’ve already made this threat. Whether they’ll go through with it - and whether the Senate itself will refuse to seat someone in the wake of a large victory margin, refusal of the state to certify notwithstanding - remains to be seen. But it’s an option that carries severe consequences with it - backlash would extend nationwide. The Dems might win the health care battle, but wind up losing the war in the midterms, or at least kissing their super-majority goodbye.

the next few days will be interesting for sure.
