What have I not answered. My position was made crystal clear in my posts.

How is a fictional hypothetical situation an easy solution. All you have done is created a basis for an argument since you have no idea how anyone would vote. It's really kind of a juvenile scenario you created. Your "guarantee" is meaningless and just biased speculation.

A gross misrepresentation. If there was universal support to get rid of it, they wouldn't engage in it and would propose legislation that addresses it without it being tied to other legislation that they know full well republicans oppose. Just a shell game.

I get why you can't square this circle, but did you have a personality transplant or something between those two back-to-back posts last night? It's nonsensical to say Dems wouldn't support a stand-alone ban on political gerrymandering, while also saying that's a "hypothetical" and "juvenile" scenario.

The question, again, is whether you think your party would put its money where your mouth is. If a stand-along gerrymandering ban was presented to Congress that would end all political gerrymandering at the state and federal levels, do you think Dems would support it? Do you think Pubs would support it? You know the answer to both of those questions, whether you'll admit it or not. And that's why Pubs own this issue.
 
I'm apoplexed!!! Calla swore to me that Pubs like him are only opposed to a ban on political gerrymandering because Dems would never agree to it.

HOW CAN WE EXPLAIN THIS TURN OF EVENTS???

God, calla, I can't imagine how you could still show your face on this board.
 
I wish that every district in every state was developed as close as possible to 50%R/50%D. Then those folks that have massively gerrymandered seats would actually have to do 2 things.
1) Work to develop relationships and be genuine to maintain the seat
2) Shut up with the BS. Go take a look at things now. The loudest people are the ones in hugely gerrymandered districts. They know they won't get voted out, so they spew crap 24/7.
