My biggest disappointment was listening the Sen Arlen Spectre (misspelling intended) weasle out a very shamefaced explanation of why he was voting for the stimulus bill on the Hannity show. You could tell that Sean was highly pained in his interview, and if Arly didn't understand what was at stake, then he's truly in the dark. The ONLY congressional chance in hell that we had was a filibuster. Even McCain was calling this stimulus for what it was, which is saying quite a bit.
Exactly 630 days until the general election that will return the Congress back to the GOP, most probably, but by then the Democrats will have screwed things up so badly. At that point, the press will take over the ball and start to demonize the new republicans for trying to screw up Obama's messes, and that is what I"m preparing my site for.
