In reply to the discussion: Esquire: "The Next Democratic President Better Be Merciless" [View all]slightlv

They don't mind the hard work... and they're good at it.they see getting bogged down in undoing the harm of the last admin as badness that keeps them from miving forward. Just my opinion.
The one thing I want more than anything is a united congress... so work can be split up among committees and the whole congress multitasking like crazy.
