There are two questions to ask about last night’s earth-shattering news of the planned retirements of Senators Byron Dorgan and Chris Dodd.
The first: What does it tell us about the overall political landscape and how tough the environment is for Dems? The second: How do the retirements impact the Dem chances of holding their supermajority?
My third: Given what we've seen of how the Dems squandered the "supermajority" when they had it, who gives a fuck whether they keep it or not? And I'm not the only one who's wondering that.
Either the Democrats will lose their "supermajority," and spend the next year or two humping Republican legs like crazed cocker spaniels, or...
They will hold on to their "supermajority"...and spend the next year or two humping Republican legs like crazed cocker spaniels.
