    Should she win her seat in November it will be a rude awakening for her. Her agenda is in direct conflict with the moderate socialist wing of the party and she will be told to "take her seat and shut up" After listening all day to debate on the issues on the floor, which will all be over her head, she will be instructed to go to the basement and work the phone lines and raise money for the DNC. I predict she will have zero bills or legislation that will be passed with her name as a sponsor.

    The DNC has been taken over by radicals. They do not support American values, or ideas. They want to fundamentally transform the United States, and they will use any means ;necessary. They are simply at war with America.

    I hope she enjoys her two years in office. I can't imagine that even the dems will reelect that mouth.

    Well, considering that the popular FDR couldn't get Congress to increase the size of the Supreme Court, I doubt that it will be changed in size.

    FDR attempted to pack the Court with the
    Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937.

    It never got through.

    The Electoral College is outlined specfically in Art 2...her wanting to abolish it, would require a Constitutional amendment

    9 is actually a pretty good number. Much more than that, and it will be hard to get any kind of ruling.

    FDR wanted to stuff the court, though. He threatened increasing the number of SCOTUS justices at one point. Congress thankfully didn't agree.

    Getting rid of the Electoral College is only possible by changing the Constitution, so suggesting getting rid of it by any way other than a constitutional amendment is unconstitutional. My guess is that she doesn't know that.

    Democrats don't understand how our country was set up. They desire Mob rule.

    The intent with FDR's attempt to pack the courts was to threaten the justices, which apparently worked.

    Just as the intent with smearing Kavanaugh was to threaten justices.

    "Do as we say or we will destroy you".

    I expect that suddenly liberal victims will start showing up on news shows claiming their #MeToo moments with Kanye.. Just a matter of time.

    You're acting like packing the Supreme Court is a new idea emanating from Alexandria O-C, but you're missing the fact that the Republicans are actually DOING what you're complaining about, right now as we speak. Kavanaugh was the Republican's latest step in "packing the court" with conservative justices. Why is it OK with you that your side can do that but it's some kind of disgraceful, unAmerican act if the Democrats copy the Republican actions?

    Thats not packing the court-which is adding MORE justices to shift its lean.

    Democrats don't get to decide what a balanced court is-the VOTERS do.

    THEY appoint the President, who then gets to pick.

    If what you post was true, then Obama would have gotten another justice on the Supreme Court in 2016.

    Nope. There were senate rules in place about that.

    Its no secret dems will do anything to advance their agenda.

    Thats why we voted in Trump.

    And its working.

    1. What rules dictated ignoring a nominee of President Obama?
    2. I'm watching Republicans demolish, twist or simply ignore every possible law or tradition in their attempt to get what they want. How's that different from what you accuse Democrats of doing?
    3. Yeah, it's working for you for now. Pendulums have a way of swinging back, you know. Should liberals be as uncaring about your feelings then as you conservatives have been about ours since 2010?
