Road to 60

[Lief 🗽]

6 or 7 seats is probably our ceiling. Hopefully, we get those 6 or 7 seats, and then Clinton (or Obama or Edwards) doesn't screw up too badly so we can get at least 2 more in 2010. Then we can really reform this country and fully undo the excesses of the Bush and Reagan administrations.

This is the wishful thinking part, not the 57 or 60 seats.  If they ever have a dominant position again, that is when the real right-wing nature of the Democratic Party will be revealed.  I.E. no significant change in the american economic system.

The last time the Democrats had a huge majority and a Democratic president, we got the New Deal and the Great Society. Hardly right-wing.
