Trouble on the Horizon For Dems?
Daisy Cutter notes that as many as 11 Democrat Senators may be on the hot seat for the next election if they don't change their ways, including rant-a-holic and kleagle Bob Byrd. DC quotes Dick Morris:
"...Byrd needs beating for a host of other reasons. His defense of the filibuster was natural, since it was he who conducted a lonely 14-hour attempt to kill the 1964 Civil Rights Act by talking until he almost dropped. He stays in office by being a pork-barrel machine who waxes eloquent, at the same time, on the perils of deficit spending."
Amen, Brother Morris!! But in West Virginia, saying Byrd needs a beating is sort of like going to Rome and saying the pope needs one...not too likely...nonetheless, with at least 10 other Democrat Senators in Red states facing some possible stiff opposition, perhaps there is yet hope that even the flaccid Republican leadership can actually accomplish something after the next election...assuming they show a little gumption before the next election.
