I was gonna make this same post, but then I remembered it was only because of John McCain in the Senate that Obamacare was spared execution.

Just elect more John McCains to office and stuff can fail by one vote by a fluke in a united Congress too. Simple and good government, right?

I'm open to the idea that Republicans would be more brazen with their legislative tactics if it was easier to pass laws, but that's an argument for not letting them assume power, not having a nonfunctional legislature just to keep them in check. The reality is that the GOP knows how to best use the government as it stands, not "as the framers intended" and right now that means using Congress and the Senate mainly as an obstructionist tool while they fuck around with the executive and judicial branches. They aren't really relinquishing power in that sense.
