re: #52 Mike Lamb

We’ll be lucky if that is the only thing they attack. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a bunch of states pass new rounds of anti-sodomy laws. Marriage equality will be on the table again. Birth control.

The fact is that I think pushing the nom through is going to cost them electorally, and may ensure a Dem Senate. But the GOP is betting that the legislation they can’t block on procedural grounds will get overturned by their big bro in SCOTUS. This is very much a “lose the battle, win the war” approach.

Return of the poll tax, mass disenfranchisement, the destruction of any sort of affordable health care, and unfettered power for the rich to do as they please because money is power is free speech, while protest is treason.
