[QUOTE="poopgiggle, post: 1895008, member: 6406"] Something that people seem to keep forgetting is that the Democratic party is bigger than Obama. Even if he, personally, said "WELP THERE'S NO MORE ELECTIONS TO WIN MIGHT AS WELL GO FOR BROKE ON GUNS," both houses of Congress are filled with Democrats who are going to be running after he leaves office. Not only that, but I'm sure the party they belong to would like their candidate to have a chance in 2016. The bit about the justices is a fair point, but it's not like any of the conservative justices are going anywhere. Justice Roberts is in his 50s still; he'll be on the Court for another 20 years at least. Thomas and Alito are in their early-to-mid 60s. Scalia and Kennedy are admittedly getting on in years (they're both 76) but I think they have another couple election cycles in them; I've seen recent TV interviews with Scalia and he's pretty energetic for almost being 80. I know that some organizations like to use The Democrats and The Obama as bogeymen to scare money and votes out of people. It's not that hard to see through the BS though. [/QUOTE]
