the dems are on a roll, baby!

 

Alcee hastings the Chair of the House Select Committee on Intelligence

 

and Charles Rangel the Chairman of the Ways and Means committee

 

 

coming from a party that preached on changing corruption and incompetence in Washington, these selections are hilarious

The Democratic House leadership said that they want to change the way things are done with regard to lobbyists. Let's see if they do.

I hope they do; it's hard to walk away from the $$, though.

I don't like Pelosi and I don't like Murtha. Pelosi seems like a hack to me, and Murtha strikes me as a bit of a boor. Also: I've read that he's a crook (http://citizensforethics.org/press/newsrelease.php?view=156).

Breaking news on the NYT site is saying Hoyer was backed by the house democrats.

Correct.

 

Guess Hoyer's campaign of leaking against Murtha worked. Dah well, didn't like either of them, and it's Nancy's job to find a way to keep them all in line.

I don't know who was feeding Murtha information that he was winning, but he got beat pretty soundly by Hoyer for the #2 job, 149-86.

Karl Rove said the Republicans would win based on their ground game until the very end. It's a pretty standard campaign tactic...never admit you're losing.

hmmm electing questionable leadership, infighting in the party, never admitting you're wrong... Hey how's that whole "we're not like the Republicians" thing working out for you? I guess Nancy should be hanging the "Mission Accomplished" banner anyday now?
