re: A large sea-change is in the offing this week. Politicians are about to figure out that you can't get elected, do the opposite of what your constituents want you to do, and then continue to stay in power. At least you can't do that in America for very long.

Fingers crossed. It's not the Democracy it used to be.

Amen!

I have never understood the Republican attitude that your leaders do whatever they damn please. David Ray would come on this thread and tell us that Bush doesn't pay attention to polls; that when one [Bush] comes from a high level of integrity, you have your own moral compass to follow.

One may have the highest level of integrity but if you are not listening to the people who 'hired' you, you're going to get into trouble........and probably get fired.
