GOP Hillary Has No Mandate Unless Gets Over 50% In ALL States She Won.

[TheMastersNemesis]

The GOP will deny Hillary of any sense of mandate or right to propose any agenda because she has not gotten over 50% of the vote in every state she wins. And if she does not bet over 50% of popular they will deny such even more.

As a matter of fact the GOP really does feel like Trump. She should not be a candidate. The GOP is going to go forward with investigations for as long as she is in office. She will be more investigated than any president in history if the GOP is in power. So Congress will be tied up in mostly investigations rather than other issues. Even impeachment could rear its ugly head again.

1. Same

They pulled the same crap in 1992 when Bill won. Mary Matalin was spewing it on CNN's Cross Fire.

2. Then we must get rid of their power in the Senate & House.

It is the only course there is.
We need approval of HRC's Supreme Court picks.
Start there & then get rid of Citizens United, voter suppression and gradually break the RW grip on our democracy.

We Must have the Senate & House to even attempt the daunting work that lays ahead.

3. Taking Both Houses Is Crucial. Just Hope Trumps Screws Up Even Worse.

I just hope that there is another "mother of all screw ups" yet to come that sinks the GOP too.

4. We need the Senate!

5. Who cares?

More gloom and doom posts.

6. who cares what GOP or any conservative thinks?? IF democrats take the Senate and the HOuse...they

have ZERO power...senate democrats can change the filibuster rules to force a filibuster to actually remain standing and talking....like it use to be

7. Just stop.

[unblock]

8. oh but when shrub didn't even get the most votes, of course he had a mandate.

and they insisted that democrats were traitors for even mentioning an opposing view on anything.

hillary is going to have a solid victory, possibly the biggest electoral victory in decades.

she has a mandate to lead, and republicans have a mandate to pound sand.

9. Sorry, but Republicans never had to meet such high thresholds for their supposed "mandates".

They can fuck right off and die in a corner if they continue to spew that nonsense.

16. Remember 50% +1? That's all they need and they'll call it a mandate if they want.

Whether you do or not. Makes no difference to them.

Remember how in 2000 they were ready to argue the case for Bush winning both ways? One way if Bush won the EC but lost the popular vote, another if he won the popular vote but lost the EC.

They don't care what it looks like. They can keep a straight face during all of it. They train for that. Winning's all that matters.

10. They refuse to learn

Their continual toxicity bred the Trump candidacy, yet they will continue to stoke the flames. It's like they want their party to implode.

[gratuitous]

11. The answer is easy if you take it logically

Get. Out. The. Vote.

15. ^^^THIS!^^^

[canetoad]

12. Mandate is a weasel word

And thrown around like confetti. Win by only a handful of votes? No matter we've got a mandate. Hillary wins in a landslide; no mandate. Pure propaganda.

[spanone]

13. so THEY are setting the parameters for their loss?....fuck them

[silverweb]

14. Riiiiight....

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]But "W" had a mandate when he won by a hanging chad. Remember that?
