I disagree. We've won five straight house elections; three straight senate elections; two straight presidential elections and the House and Senate majorities have increased. So it appears to be helping a great deal where it counts, in elections.
"the House and Senate majorities have increased"
I wouldn't count on a majority next time around.
I agree with Dick Morris. Pres. Bush made a big mistake picking Clinton up after he left office. He was a man whose legacy was in the toilet, until his image was polished up by Bush. Now, he's turning around and biting Bush in the butt. And his newly polished image is a big help to Hillary.
