    In a functioning congress dealing would make logical sense. The fact that Republicans can’t be trusted to follow through on deals makes trying to make deals with them illogical.

    Compromise on one specific piece of legislation? Sure, as long as it is checked to ensure no poison pulls were snuck in and the compromise was worth it.

      This plan is extortion, not dealing. And the assholes Republicans deserve to be extorted, the Dems need to grow a few dozen pairs and give it a shot.
