Well you know politics in the USA. The minute one election is over the next one starts. Funny but that was something else Obama mentioned after the comment on the Baker plan was that the neverending election cycle sucks( a JohnnyFlame paraphrase).
To me I wonder will they do anything constructive? Will the Democrats just waste the next two years doing nothing but whining and hoping Bush hangs the Republicans in IRAQ? I think the CNN panel was right and this wasn't a pro Democrat vote but an anti-Bush one. The vote in 2008 could swing back the other way really easily if the Democrats do nothing with their majorities.
I'm Bush and the Dem's I get together and run with the Baker plan and get IRAQ right off the map. Dem's can still point to it as folly but if the body bags keep on arriving and they have done zilch to stop it they will start to get their share of the blame.
I don't know but I get the feeling that the anti-government feeling which has been growing in the USA is going to do nothing but continue to grow if the politicians continue to do nothing but spend all their time and money to get elected and do it by blaming the other party without when they get in doing anything besides pork barrel for their own buddies.
I'd like to see Bush the Texas governor who would actually work with the Dem's and get some stuff done --starting in IRAQ.
