We might as well, after the way it was corrupted to enact Obamacare. Using the reconciliation process for something it was never intended, a totally partisan vote based on multiple payoffs to get just enough Democrats to support the legislation (without any interest in getting Republicans to support it). Legislation crafted by a room full of Democrats with zero input from Republicans.

It really was about as close to abolishing the Senate as you can get while still keeping the name active.

I wish I had perfect knowledge... But I don't. Sorry if that is not good enough for you.

You say something so silly such as >>"Liberals want the Senate discarded"<< then find a couple of links from 2009 and 2008 by two guys no one has heard of to "substantiate" your statement and you expect a serious response...

You are a clown.
