of a new Congress are: 1) recognition of the majority party; 2) election of the Speaker; and 3) appointment of cmte chairs. If DEMs had control of the House today, the stupid vote against Holder would not have occurred. So, as much as they stink, I have to vote for a Blue Dog over a T-bagger. If it were a Blue Dog v. liberal Republican, then ... But, that can't happen. There are no living liberal Republicans.
