evilweasel posted:there's been a single successful discharge petition in my lifetime (mccain-feingold bill), they're never successful. tweaking the nonsense around them is a free gift to some idiots who want a talking point, because it doesn't do anything (the reason that discharge petitions never work is because they're considered basically treason to your caucus) And the very, very rare times when a discharge petition looks like it might succeed, the speaker usually goes "ok fine you idiots, I'll put a watered-down amendment that sort of addresses your issue on the schedule". (which no one likes and will lose) And some nervous lawmakers, already scared about opposing their own speaker quickly acquiesce and go "ok, thank you, I'll take my name off the petition!"

Yeowch!!! My Balls!!! posted:i have extremely bad news for you about Bush V. Gore 2000 At least Bush v. Gore made a lot more sense, to the extent that it made any sense at all, than what Mia Love seems to be arguing. She wants the counting to stop until they can inspect signatures on absentee ballots, after which they can resume counting valid ballots.... which is silly. She'll have plenty of time to do that after the count, and if she miraculously finds a mythical pile of defective ballots for her opponent and retakes the lead, then she wins. So, what she essentially is arguing is that her "damages" if the court doesn't intervene is bad publicity (having a larger lead later reversed instead of the current smaller lead).
