1. Only Democrats can bring frightening compromises at this point.

Repubs don't have a fillibuster proof majority, and President Obama has the veto pen.

Make no mistake about it, any shitty legislation actually getting signed in to law in the next 2 years will be 100% the fault of Democrats. Period. End of Sentence.
