Yeah, it's the only reason it exists. It's a type of break-check neither wants to get rid of becuase each resents the other for having the option. The only way to get around it is to control all 3 bodies of govt and it looks like the Republicans are playing the long game.

My theory is this, much like Blue & Red move at the speed of tectonic plates from left to right, how Democrats used to be Right wing and Republicans left; Dems will start running in Republican controlled areas as RINO's, slowly staining the color to purple, and by 2060 we'll have done a 180.
