What's It Going To Take?

From Balloon Juice:

"There’s a lot of talk on this blog about the inevitable Democratic majority, but how many more voters do Democrats have to gather before their agenda actually becomes law? The Republicans out-gerrymandered Democrats to keep the House, they’re working to slant the Electoral College in their direction, and they just won a big victory in the Senate that will let them obstruct for two more years. As DougJ memorably said, Democrats are still coming to a knife fight with a tote bag, and we keep getting cut." (our emphasis)

You can add to that list the recent ruling by the three Rethuglican hacks D.C. Circuit Court voiding President Obama's recess appointments (pending appeal to the =hack= Supreme Court). Kudos all around.
