(6,699 posts)THIS is what's wrong with some politicians existing in Congress loooooong past their loyalty to the public. I'm really upset to hear this, and I honestly don't know that much about Durbin; but what I do know, I don't like.
I see NO REASON to cave to the repuKKKes for the single purpose of "appearance of compromise". When one side is irrational and unrealistic, the other side doesn't have to meet them half-way to a deal.
This had better not happen. I know it would be the "death-nail" of Durbin's political career, and it may certainly slow the momentum of the Democratic Party and our future hopes of ever taking back the House.
Pull your head out of you ass Durbin, and if that's your idea of negotiations, YOU need to step down and certainly STFU!
