With a strong Democratic Senate and a vocal public President Clinton will be very aware that she will be held accountable. Remember Warren and Bernie will still be strong voices in the Senate and I suspect we will have Russ Feingold and a few others coming on board as well. The party has already tilted further left and is more Progressive.... We need to do everything we can to assure that she succeeds by working hard to elect Democratic Senators, Congresspeople and Governors as well as Democrats in our local elections. If we build her up from the bottom she can not waiver.
