    I think it has something to do with accelerating a bill's passage. As in if it gets unanimous consent it moves forward immediately but if one Senator objects it goes through a more standard and longer process.

        I had to look it up too. Basically just more attn. whoring from Rand to make himself look good to his tea party base (at least I think that's the calculation he's making). More or less the type of thing his dad would do too.

        Hopefully he only has one neighbor...

          Both need to go.
          The entire state of Kentucky needs to go. Merge it into Indiana and call it good. Brings like-minded Deplorables together and fixes the Senator problem.

                    Meh, that's not a good trend for her and shows that her outlook is a concern at the very least. Nobody is prophesying a sure victory for the dems.

                      Look, I know we all think she's vulnerable and we've all been busy calling her all sorts of nasty names, but that doesn't mean she's a lock to lose like a lot of your fellow-traveling Bernouts think.

                            I sometimes wonder if Australia might be the model for American social capitalism/democracy. Overlook the parliamentary system and guns (the latter of which we're moving towards), and we're culturally similar in quite a few other ways. Lots of "cowboy" thinking.

                                Their morons are eerily similar way to ours. Australia is the US if the Hudson River swelled and everything east broke off, drifted out into the ocean, and formed its own country (New Zealand).
