The Republican "Just Say No" tactics wouldn't bother me a bit
If we had only done the same thing during the Bush Presidency. Do you realized how much better a place the world would be today if Democrats would have been half the obstructionists to bush that the Republicans are to Obama. The difference is back then they worked to destroy the country and we weren't willing to stand up to them whereas now we work to improve the country and aren't willing to push them aside.

So you gotta ask yourself, if we won't stand and won't push just what are we here for? I think the Democratic Party has to make a decision about what it is, and then be that thing. Otherwise we'll be as irrelevant as the Teabaggers, just a lot of noise and not action.

1. Harry Reid might have been, and still might be the problem.
He is not forceful enough to be the majority leader. DO you think he could be sparked into fighting for us and snapping the senators into getting health care straightened out?
