A plurality should rule

Madison's Mistake

When you add the populations of Idaho, Wyoming and Utah what do you get? You get six Republican senators representing a population half the size of New York City.

The eight states of Kansas, Oklahoma, Arizona, Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee give us another 16 Republican senators and their combined populations are less than California's.

That's a tough row to hoe for 60 votes.

That's a 'repost'.  With the minority Party being able to stop Obama's Jobs Act without a majority, it definitely still applies.

A minority Party whose stated goal is to harm the President and thereby, the country, should not be allowed to filibuster.
