[QUOTE="Thebrownblob, post: 6079911, member: 60485"] Again, I don’t like the car salesman tactics here. “Gotta do it now don’t think just do” We constantly lambaste Democrats for walking in lockstep. We shouldn’t become what we don’t agree with to get what we want. There’s plenty of time and if you truly believe the Republicans are doing the right thing, the midterms shouldn’t be a worry.
