GOP Madness Here To Stay. Without Wave Election Will Still Control The Agenda For A Long Time..

As Speaker Bonehead was bad enough. However, the nitwits waiting in the wings are even more gruesome. The righties want leadership that will actually shut down government until their agenda is passed. Presently we are going no where in the US.

Right now it does not look good for getting back the House and the Senate, even though the Senate is more achievable. The fact that 2010 gerrymandering might keep the GOP in power until 2020 makes the future look dim.

I cannot believe the complete nonsense that surfaces every day politically. McCarthy sounds like Palin. Yet he is favored to be Speaker. All the other choices are just as gruesome.

Perhaps I am too cynical and I hope I am wrong.

The House, I agree with you, is a lost cause, at least until 2022 and doing well then depends on winning state legislatures in 2020 and turning out our voters for a midterm in 2022.
