Republicans are pushing an absurd flag-burning amendment. Will their mom 'n' apple pie ploy torch the Democrats?
  • What's next

    If the Democrats think resisting the ammendments will cost them too many elections, maybe the best strategy would be to use whatever political capital they have to participate and makes sure whatever passes has the narrowest possible scope.

    A couple of narrow ammendments won't make any real difference in America. We currently don't have any burning flags or gay marriages.

    But it will put the issues to rest. And then what will the Republicans run on? I don't think Republicans have an endless supply of superficial issues that excite their base.
