Every now and then it is nice to see someone else draw the same conclusion. The item below does a nice job of presenting the problems caused by the Democratic party after their midterm launch to majority status. Certainly the GOP had failed us in many ways and appeared unable or unwilling to make corrections. With the Dems agenda stalled or failing and that same stubborness to continue as before, 2008 may bring a swift end to any hopes they had for a long run as the majority. The country suffers from these political failures while politicians can continue or become lobbyists and cause more problems.

And then consider the do-nothing Democrats

Americans are giving the Democratic-run Congress failing grades after five months of bickering and stalemate that has stalled or killed their chief legislative priorities.
The Democrats’ latest report card came in a recent Gallup Poll that showed their job-approval ratings had sunk to 29%, several points below even President Bush’s low job-approval numbers, which Gallup said were “holding steady” at 33% since April.
Democratic strategists and independent pollsters say their party will pay a political price in next year’s elections if they cannot show the American people they can do the nation’s business. But as Democrats near the midway point in this first session of Congress, the prospects that anything on their must-pass list of domestic legislation will be enacted appear bleak.
