Maybe Lieberman's win may be a strike for more indi candidates. The Vermont one surely isn't. My Congressman's a fiscal conservative working for budgetary constraint. He wants to prudently spend the people's money. What Karl Rove was attempting and what we got in a GOP majority were two different things. The people elected did not live up to what Rove was selling. This year they were fired. The new recruits for 2008, that's a different story. The loyal opposition was not that loyal.

Just my feeling. They fed the insurgency with hope, just hang on a little longer and America will tire and withdraw. Now that’s sounding like a Perotista.
