Bipartisianship At Last !

Somehow I don't think this was what President Obama had in mind!  It seems that a few things have changed since the election of Scott Brown in Massachusetts.  Although the President seems to be permanently deaf to the wishes of the American people, some of the Democrats running for re-election have suddenly developed an acute sense of hearing.

Hot Air reported yesterday that two Democrats have joined a group of Republicans in supporting a bill to withhold the funds the President requested for trying terrorists in civilian courts.  Eighteen senators, including two Democrats and one Independent introduced the bill.  The Democrats are Jim Webb and Blanche Lincoln, and the Independent is Joe Lieberman.  Blanche Lincoln is up for re-election and down in the polls. 

Personally, I am wondering about the chances of a Democrat Presidential Primary in 2012.  It would be unusual, but unless President Obama's approval ratings change and the economy improves (those factors are related), I think it could happen.  The challenge from the right would be Evan Byah and/or Hillary Clinton.  The challenge from the left would be someone like Howard Dean.  Because that would split the vote, I believe President Obama would win, but it would make for an interesting 2012. 

Meanwhile, it's nice to know that some members of Congress are learning how to listen!

The post on finding great essays writers was much needed. Sometimes I am weary of trying out different writers because I am not sure what services they will provide. With this information now I can choose comfortably and without hesitation because I have a guideline.
