Sixty Votes, Right?


What kind of utter lamage is this? I mean, seriously, last time I checked the Democrats had 60 votes now in the Senate, right? And how many of Obama's appointees are in place? Less than 50%

Huzzah for unity porn!

On a serious note, Obama, to my mind, has about three or four months, at the most, to figure it out. After that, the Republicans are going to eat him and his brand of bi-partisanship alive. And yes, when the Republicans win back a majority in the House in 2010 I will say I told you so.

If this is true Obama may become a hero

Is this true or a hoax? I don't want to get too excited.

Any logical person would agree that a public option is needed. It's not the only thing that is needed, but it's a necessary component.
