Now that the House is under Dem leadership, perhaps some thoughtful discussion can happen between the two parties. If the Senate goes also, that will make it even more likely, since the only alternative is gridlock. Indeed. Congratulations should be extended to the framers for their check and balance foresight and the American citizenry for exercising their right to vote their conscience. We have an opportunity to repair what's gone wrong if the partisanship can get set aside or at least somewhat muted. If Bush is demanding and attempts to push politically-motivated "reforms" such as social security, he'll cement the Ds position as the preferred party. jps It's getting harder. CNN has declared Tester winner over Burns in the Montana U.S. Senate race. The remaining undeclared Senate race is in Virginia, where Webb maintains a 7,000-vote margin over Macaca. Virginia probably will head into a recount, and the final results not certified until late November or early December. If Allen had any class, he'd concede now, right? Seems I've heard this before. Yeah, seems to strike a chord somehow. Something about "for the good of the country." That and "sore loser" come to mind. Allen doesn't have that much class and the R's aren't about to let go of a potential to keep the senate. D's would be screaming at the top of their lungs if their leadership didn't contest, given a reversed scenario. I'd be among them. jps |
