Not happening.
I've written both Cornyn and Cruz, letting them both know that they will no longer get my vote. And I mean it. As far as I'm concerned, the national Republican party is dead to me. I will continue to vote for state and local Republicans only because Texas must remain red in order to secede. Aside from that, they've lost me for good. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: /thread Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: From D to R: zero From R to D: likely /thread I could see several RINOs make it official. Lindsey, if he figures SC is done with him. Line up his lobbying gig for retirement, make some coin. Mittens, if Joe will hire him for something. Portman. Toomey, if he wan't retiring, but he may finish 2 years 'in the majority'. RINOs in Red and Swing States will quickly figure out with MAGA voters on the sidelines in ANY numbers, they're fucked. Add in permanent-majorities for the Dems with DC and PR, why stay? They don't believe in any of that 'freedom' shit anyway - that's just for the rubes. Better cocktail parties, too. Friendly press. BONUS: You're no longer a racist!! |

Specter went that route and the Dems screwed him out of his committee seats. He complained that he had seniority and the Dems told him his seniority started over when he switched. Romney could probably pull it off since he’s already been blackballed. Even with Trump gone, I don’t think McConnell and other RINOs cared for a just elected senator leading an unpopular impeachment attempt against a president in the same party, so he could possibly switch. Wouldn’t matter either way at this point because they already have the majority and Romney votes with them to begin with.

Correct analysis. Cruz volunteering to argue Texas v PA at SCOTUS had him ascendent, plus the objection, MAGA would have embraced him. But he had to piss it away. |

Romney and Murkowski will whine about it for leverage (and because they're just weasels at heart) but know they're reelection chances are very slim as Dems in those states. They'll stay out.
Collins just got re-elected but is a possibility, she could win her state as a Dem. I'd say 10% chance in the next two years. Manchin has four years left but also must know he would easily be re-elected if he stabs the Dems in the back. My guess is he would only jump if the Dems lean on him too hard to pass overly progressive garbage. 5% chance. |
