So now that we control the Senate,

how many more times will we hear the words "up or down vote" ???

Will the Repubs in the Senate try to filibuster as much as possible, or is the "nuclear" option still on the table?

1. Don't get ahead of yourself.... We are tied 50/50, given Tester's

newly announced win... Virginia will give us the win, but if they push the recount, opportunity still exists for theft...

3. There's also no guarantee that the Democrats in the Senate will be of one mind

2. How do we control the Senate??

I have to say, I'm getting really tired of these wildly inaccurate threads! It's SO straightforward, and Skinner even posted a thread to EXPLAIN IT FURTHER. Can you please READ before you post? Thank you!
