All ya hear is how everything will change if we gain control of the Senate.

I have one question I would like to ask the Adminstration. If regaining the Senate is the motivation for the compromises of the past couple of months (CFR, Tarrifs, Farm Bill), then why the heck didn't we just compromise with (buy out) Jeffords in the first place when we had the Senate? Back then, the President was on shaky ground (narrow victory and all). Now, he is on strong ground. Yet they stuck to their principles then, and now.... Not so much. I don't get it.

That 70-80% approval rating means absolutely NOTHING to Dashhole. The Dems have decided the best strategy is to mouth support for the WOT while blocking every move the administration makes. They have only one arrow in their quiver and that is control of Senate committees. The media only shows the "bi-partisan" cooperation shown before the cameras. The reality is only seen on C-span when the votes are taken and the nominees for any position are routinely discarded like so much morning trash. That is why control of the Senate is so damned important. The issue is not a rino, the issue is who chairs the committees. That is the issue, if we have to suffer a rino to get Fred Thompson as chair of a senate committee then so be it.
