I have to admit that while I think (hope) you are correct, it drives me nuts when we are always portrayed as the "losers" no matter what the agreement is.

RR subscribed to the belief that it is amazing what can be accomplished if it doesn't matter who gets the credit. But once, just once, I'd love to see the press say "those republicans really stuck to their guns and did what was right and they won big." I'd settle for a comment that would suggest this could work to the GOP's advantage.

Everything is framed in the press from the Dem POV. It's a win for the Dems (at the expense of the big bad Republicans), or a loss for the Dems (shocking, something must be the matter. The voters must be stupid!). I'm just sick of it.

/pity party.

Thanks Polly.

Emotions seem to be running high tonight. The Republican Leadership has managed to Defeat Communism, End Welfare-as-we-know-it, Win the House and hold it, Win the Senate despite RINOs, Elect our great President twice, kick terrorism, and so forth in spite of the Liberal Press and obstructionist Democrats. I gotta believe the Good Guys know what they are doing.
