A little perspective, folks, please! First, this is an item from PMSNBC. Secondly, I think the Senate 'Pubbies are starting to feel their Cheerios and aren't in much of a mood to continue to allow letting the MINORITY Dem party call the shots.
The voters handed them a clear majority in November and gave Bush a mandate. If they know anything, they know that this session is the time to put up or shut up. If they don't come through with the President's agenda, they know that they will never see a majority again.
I think we will see Senate 'Pubbies who are energized and ready to take control - FULL control of the Senate and prove that the voters were right to give them that majority.
Oh, don't rain on their parade here. They are in such a girlie-macho hissy fit right now!
