Nancy Pelosi, the House Democratic leader, spent much of the campaign season vowing that if her party took control in January, the first order of business on day one would be ethics reform. It was a smart selling point to a country sick of Republican abuses. It looks even smarter now that the Democrats have won. She calls it "draining the swamp".........I think that's a pretty apt description. She really has it made......all she has to do is be reasonably competent and push a reasonable agenda. If Bush blocks her, he screws his party big time for 2008......something I don't think the GOP leaders will put up with. Bush has expended all his political capital and more.....he owes them. I understand now why pundits were saying that a Dem win in 2006 is a stepping stone to the presidency in 2008. The Dems have to screw up badly in the next two years to screw their chances in 2008. And btw Charles Cook is da Man! He alone of all the pundits was saying that you are getting it wrong.....the wave is still building for the Dems, not going the other way.......and he was right.....just as he was right in 2004. Go to hell David Ray.....do not pass 'Go' and do not collect $200!
