since they negotiated the deal together.

And why no love for Pelosi, who is opposing Reid/Obama on the concessions?

1. Because Reid is suposed to keep all the Dems lined up.
This bill would be a no-brainer if all the Dems would vote Yeah. For some reason there seems to be a problem with that.

5. Harry Reid and Nancy have never..
stood up for anything, or anyone...except for Global Corporations. Of course, ultimately, the burden lies with the American people, who still seem to believe they only have to vote once every four years, and everyone will do the right thing.

3. The honeymoon is still ongoing
once its worn off people will be more critical of errors. I firmly believe we must hold Democrats to a higher standard than we did the GOP - after all they are supposed to be our party! :)

8. Because some people have to learn...
that they must contact THEIR OWN Senators and Representatives and not just blame it on party leadership that isn't really any of their business anyway.
