For Democrats, Internal Dissent Could Stop an Agenda Cold - The Caucus Blog - NYTimes.com


"As Democrats try again this week to fight through their election-year storm, Job No. 1 is settling on a common destination.

For instance, they will need to make order out of chaos on energy, the issue President Obama elevated from the Oval Office last week. Two days later, three Senate Democrats presented different plans to a party caucus that failed to settle on one approach.

“We are not going today to tell you what we’re going to have in this legislation,” the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, acknowledged afterward, “because that’s a work in progress.”"

Clinton administration. Bush Jr. administration. History has decided: Republicans can't govern.

Your point? If Bush Sr's 4 were so lackluster he didn't get re-elected and Bush jr.s 8 so excreble that they are of historical significance in their disreptitude are you really going to float the idea that time under sail equals aptitude? Surely not!
