On paper: filibuster-proof majority
In reality: yeah, right. The Dems can't agree on enough - and the wheels on the bus go bump-bump-bump.

Hell, health care reform has been a Dem. priority since the New Deal and they haven't managed to get this no-brainer done. I'll be stunned if it gets done now, either. Deficit hawks, lobby puppets... fractured coalition at best. I can't get too excited.

On the other hand - they're having a hell of a party over at C-SPAN.

I've been thinking, we've had the actor president. Comedian next?

What's with his wife? She's like Adrian from the first Rocky movie when she was all bashful and you thought she might be a little slow in the head. Franken has to direct her where to go by slapping her hip like the woman was a horse or something. I mean, she appears pleasant and, but still...

I'm sorry to see a news story this monumentally dumb go away. But with this new Filibuster-Proof(TM) Senate, the Democrats can start self-destructing at a much faster rate!
