Disagree. Schumer will be the Majority leader because Turtles has squandered the 4-seat majority given him in 2014. A large majority of the seats up for reelection in 2016 are Republican incumbent, and a lot will lose because of McConnell's endless dithering. I always considered '16 touch and go for Republicans, with the potential for great loss if McConnell blows it, which he has done.
Thanks for the thread, Pookie!!!
========================================================================================== By the way, I'm growing rather weary of the cheap comparisons of Obama with Neville Chamberlain. The British Prime Minister got the biggest issue of the day wrong. But no one ever doubted that he loved his country. That's why, after his eviction from Downing Street, Churchill kept him on in his ministry as Lord President of the Council, and indeed made Chamberlain part of the five-man war cabinet and had him chair it during his frequent absences.
When he [Chamberlain} died of cancer in October 1940, Churchill wept over his coffin.
So please don't insult Neville Chamberlain by comparing him to Obama. -- Mark Steyn"
