Okay.

And now you're down a senator. If Franken makes it, you can't even filibuster. Obama can appoint anyone he likes.

But you've established ideological purity. Congratulations.

Of course. Because you're "independent".

Even though you spend all your time defending Bush and his policies.

Naw, I'm not going digging.

Instead, I'll just ask you...you say you aren't a republican, I seriously doubt you're a dem...and now you aren't an independent. What are you?

That is assuming all democrats will vote accordingly, and they have proven they won't. The bluedog democrats are siding with republicans.

Personally, I hope a couple of progressive (NOT moderate) democrats decide to challenge him, if he doesn't support at least the main things Obama wants passed, like health care and energy.
