It wasn’t long ago the Dem’s were licking their wounds from 2004. Complete incompetence mixed with a particularly vile type of arrogance gave the Democrats a window of opportunity. The continued deaths in Iraq. The chaos in Iraq. The lack of a coherent plan. The Dubai Port deal. The attempt to steal Social Security. An economy that’s making the rich richer and everyone else is asked to bend over.
I had an opportunity to speak with Tom Daschle on Sunday night. He and I were riding the same plane going to Atlanta. I asked him a rhetorical question — can you name any policy that President Bush has implemented that is actually benefit the American people? Then I qualified this question by saying any major policy. Neither one of us could think of any. You have No Child Left behind, Stem Cell Research, Healthy Forests, Energy Policy — not one of these have been helpful to the American people. (On a personal note, it was a great thrill to talk with Senator Daschle in person, especially since, I interviewed him on my show not two weeks ago.)
It will still be another couple of hours before we find out the outcomes of the Senate races. It appears that the race in Virginia, Tennessee and Missouri are going to be extremely close.
