Like I said about Vice President Joe Biden before, who needs enemies?
At a fund raiser for an Arizona congresswoman Tuesday, Biden said that if the Democrats lose much of its majority in next year's election, it could mean curtains for Barack Obama's agenda.
At stake is a block of 35 Congressional seats in traditionally Republican districts that are now filled by Democrats. Biden said Team Obama is pinning its hopes on hanging on to those seats in the midterm election.
This is according to Karen Travers at ABC News:
"If they take them back, this the end of the road for what Barack and I are trying to do," the vice president said at a fundraiser for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) (Tuesday) in Greenville, Delaware ...
The Democrats currently hold a 60-40 majority in Congress. While losing those seats wouldn't take the majority away from Obama's party, the Republicans would be in better bargaining position in the Capitol, and they would regain the ability to fillibuster a bill out of existence.
Kevin Aylward of the Wizbang blog finds this terribly funny.
... the really humorous part is that later in the article Biden then predicts that if by some miracle Democrats aren't slaughtered in the mid term elections a new era of bipartisanship will blossom ...
Something tells me dissent is one thing ObamaNation does NOT want.
