77. If the administration and Congress doesn't stop insulting and backstabbing key constituencies
Edited on Fri Apr-16-10 10:44 PM by depakid
and continues to defensively back incumbents against primary challengers (during a period with strong anti-incumbent sentiment), then the losses will (and should be) epic.

The lesson ought to have been learned long ago that pandering to the corporate right and being seen as standing for nothing more than business as usual is a losing strategy.

Unfortunately, this is what I fully expect the administration and congress to continue doing.

The only saving grace is that Reid won't be there in 2011 to continue the dysfunctional tradition.
