- We saw what happened to the TX abortion bill, all it takes is a spark. -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:24 6
  - *shrug* i've been watching the farm bill sail through for decades without anyone giving a crap. i doubt that changes... - x Jul 11, 09:28
  - That will be quickly swept aside in a few days when the next special session passes the law just as the last one did minutes too late. - Will Hunting Jul 11, 09:25 4
    - the Dems might not have the sheer numbers to change it yet, but they're not gonna forget -- nm - charlie Jul 11, 09:29 1
      - And in 2020 or 2022, when they get close to thinking Texas is back in play...this will matter. - Will Hunting Jul 11, 09:40
    - TX will pass it alright, but it motivates more people. Everyone doubted me a year ago when I said social issue would dominate 2012 election cycle - MDH Jul 11, 09:27 1
      - It...didn't dominate the 2012 election cycle unless you talk about the GOP picking 2 or 3 bad candidates and the GOP running a lifeless campaign - Will Hunting Jul 11, 09:37
Yup. The entire Congressional Black Caucus is on the House floor speaking against it. -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:15
