Democrats Should Be Able to Hold Onto Both

houses of Congress this fall--I can't imagine anybody wanting to put Republicans in there who would make it worse--but if they don't, it's because there is an inept, quasi-Republican already in the White House who doesn't stand for anything unless it dovetails with the GOP.

Just look at his policies in Iraq and Afghanistan. Look at his policies with regard to education. Look at his appointment of privatizers to the so-called "catfood commission" hellbent on destroying Medicare and Social Security.

Marc Rubin summarizes the pitiful situation very well:

Yes, certainly Democrats could be in trouble, but what Gibbs didn't say is that the reason the Democrats are in trouble is because of a politically inept, incompetent, dishonest, double dealing, double-talking, conviction-less president who has run Democratic party initiatives into the ground , been tepid and ineffective on every presidential level and has just about everyone disgusted with him even though for very different reasons.
