I think the stupidist things Dems will do are balance the budget, clean up the mess that is Iraq, start putting the Bill of Rights back together, slow the conservative propoganda machine (that seems to have worked on some people), and start repairing our damaged international relations. Man, thoses Dems are stupid.

/end sarcasm

If the US leaves Iraq, there won't be terrorists there anymore if you catch my drift.

I think that the Dems have a lot of stuff on their plate that that things will have to be prioritized in order for them to really get going. To me, dealing with the highly corrupt organizations that pandered and still pander to conservatives is high on the list, and if the Dems want to win the 2008 election they should put it high on their list, too. Now, I'm not saying that conservative talking heads should be replaced with liberal talking heads. I don't think that talking heads have a place in the world besides in volcanos, but I do think that the obvious bias should be addressed. The coverage of Abramoff, mentioned above, was so beyond the scope that it made smoke come out of my ears. I cheered when he plead guilty on three counts of fraud, but those charges were just the surface of the true coruption.

I will watch with great interest as the next 2 years unfold.
