I'm cheering because of two of the three possible outcomes:

1. Old school Dems win a party civil war (least likely).
2. Civil war splits the ranks during election, leading to Republican gains.
3. Far leftist's win the civil war, alienating moderates. If by some chance, lefties win elections, it'll be go time.

Actually, you are DEAD WRONG.

Sinema did a very good job of ignoring/disguising her radical past.  Even when her oppostion would bring it up in campaign ads, Sinema's reponse was to ignore it.

By doing so, she managed to avoid being well understood for the fruitcake she really is, and this helped her win the election.  It will be interesting to see how much of her REAL agenda/leanings shows up once she takes office.  Even better, it will be interesting to see the reaction of some of the AZ voters who thought she was a good choice.

All Republicans in the House should vote fojr her to be Speaker of the House, and encourage Democrats to do the same.

Uh, minority party doesn't vote for speaker
Wrong. Per wikipedia:


The House of Representatives elects the Speaker of the House on the first day of every new Congress and in the event of the death, resignation or removal from the Chair of an incumbent Speaker. The Clerk of the House of Representatives requests nominations: there are normally two, one from each major party (each party having previously met to decide on its nominee). The Clerk then calls the roll of the Representatives, each Representative indicating the surname of the candidate the Representative is supporting. Representatives are not restricted to voting for one of the nominated candidates and may vote for any person, even for someone who is not a member of the House at all. They may also abstain by voting "present".[9]

Although no rule exists, based on tradition and practice from the earliest days of the nation, to be elected speaker a candidate must receive an absolute majority of all votes cast for individuals, i.e. excluding those who abstain. If no candidate wins such a majority, then the roll call is repeated until a speaker is elected. The last time repeated votes were required was in 1923, when the Speaker was elected on the ninth ballot.

Laugh all you want GD, but underestimate her and her comrades at your own peril.

She won the primary in her district against an establishment democrat.  She got voted in being an open socialist.  This is what her voters want, and they don't want less of it.

They don't care if she is a dumbass. They don't care if she doesn't know the three branches of government. To them, the three branches of government should be the Mao branch, the Stalin branch, and the Marx branch. They are going to do everything in their power (and themn some) to make it happen.

it doesnt look good for her in the short term, but folks need to be aware of demographics and how things are changing and how things like shackling younger folks with mortgage level college loans will have a long term impact on the political layout in this country. she's too outfront now. will be interesting to see how she does in the long term. they almost elected a communist as governor in my state.

This might be the beginning of the end for two party system. Its interesting that within a few years, both parties have begun to transform radically. I foresee you will eventually have at least four parties.

Trumpians - Populist, protectionist, hawkish, anti-immigration. Might be willing to dump pro-life and war on drugs.

GOP(e) - Pro Business, possibly the party of "morality". They'll have to cater to the Christian Right to survive.

Democrats - Basically what we have now. They will throw crumbs at their constituents while basically staying pro-business in many ways. Will cater unions, private and public.

Socialists - Unabashed, full retard, european styled socialism.

this is very unlikely to happen. this is not a parliamentary system where alliances can be made and broken and governments can fall to require an election and reform the government. a multi-party congress and senate with the president elected in a separate national election cannot function like a european parliamentary system. it requires no more than two parties and cant function any other way.

She got elected to Congress without it.  Who needs a civics class?

Besides, all she would learn of that "old people" stuff...you know...Founding Fathers, Constitution, Declaration of something-or-other.  None of the new stuff like More Taxes to pay for all this free shit we're going to be giving away.

If these kind of people start taking over, maybe the best decision would be to get on the gov't tit and milk that bitch for all it's worth.
