Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

According to Jorge Ramos, we are now 2 votes shy to get this done.

But honestly, I know you guys are hoping, praying, but honestly...tomorrow at 11 am EST, do you guys think it will pass!?

In my heart, I believe it will, but for some reason my head tells me it wont. I'm not trying to be negative but something just tells me it wont.

What are your guys' thoughts about tomorrow!?

I'm hoping for a miracle to be honest. Tonight I will actually get down on my knees and pray

Re: Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

Hope should be the last to die, but I feel it's not going to pass. No amount of pressure and sympathy can defrost the cold tactical hearts of some of these politicians.

Re: Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

my thoughts are that it won't pass but I think that just maybe we might get the 60 votes with tons of luck

Re: Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

My heart wants to say yes, my mind? I'm getting these little images in my head of people who supported DREAM before saying 'secure are barders.' Or something along the lines of 'day done it as a political ploy for hispanic votars.'

I'll be the one laughing decades from now, when these racists won't be able to muster Hispanic votes.

I feel about the same way I felt when the house voted. Hopefully that is a good sign.


If it passes what will happen to us over the years? I joined this forum this year but lurked for years well before it. If we can't get 60 votes for cloture then I expect our community to shrink anyways.

Something out there is listening. If tomorrow isn't our day, I know one day it will come. We will all get through this together. But I think your right, praying, hoping, watching and calling is all we can do as we watch out future in the hands of the senate.


I meant, 2 EST on my first post, sorry.

Re: Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

Whether it passes or fails tomorrow, it is really sad to think that the positions of a mere few Senators can decide the lives of thousands of people.

Re: Honestly, what are your thoughts right now...
 

I think that no matter what, no matter who, our lives are sacred. I'll try to live everyday fully, I'll try to live my life, to enjoy my life. I will fight against the racism and the racists of this country.

Yes... it probably will fail.
But we still have light hopes.

But then.... how many times do we have to fail again? doing the same thing over, and over, and over?
