On the surface, the most clueless group is the Senate GOP. They had agreed to cave to everything the Democrats wanted before McCain showed up.

I agree with you on the Sen Repubs being spineless or clueless. What really concerns me is the Sen Repub leadership, or the lack thereof.

The Senate needs a thorough housecleaning. Ironically, coincidentally, or as a result of (depending on your POV), the Senate is the chamber in which Bush spent most of his campaign mojo on over the last few elections.

Did not pay off, George. I think you’re a great guy, but you supported squishy-middle idiots, likely intentionally.

We need some of the House GOP guys to run for Senate, or the few conservatives in the Senate (Coburn, DeMint, Cornyn, etc) need to get themselves elected into Senate leadership next year. Coburn would be my choice for Senate Majority Leader.
