  Let’s cue up the circular firing squad. John Cole nails exactly what I’m feeling right now: About health care reform is that it is a primer for Banking and Financial Regulation. We get to look forward to watching the House bill get neutered down by the conservadems, the GOP will be [...]

  Mcjoan reports ~ New Poll: Dems' 2010 Prospects Tied to the Public Option
  When Dems were told they were going to get change in 2006 and 2008, that's what we expected. Now it would seem rank and file Democratic voters--not activists, but regular voters--are using the only leverage they' [...]

  What do you do when a guy in your own party starts talking about how increasing the federal bureaucracy may be a bit bogus? Even for Dems?

  Oppose: 29%
  
  CNN: Conducted December 2-3 2009
  Support: 53%
  Oppose: 46%
  
  But support for the Senate proposal is abysmal. I wonder why that is? Oh, yeah... because Progressive [...]

  —Delaware Way

  Number of comments: 0
  Devilstower presents ~
  Ten litmus tests which every potential Democratic candidate should be able to ace before they ever hope to put (D) after their names. In fact, I'll go so far as to be more pure than the Republicans. If you can't pass every one of these tests, [...]

• Advice For Blanche Lincoln: Go Big Or Go Home

  —Delaware Liberal

  Blanche Lincoln is one of the worst weak-kneed ConservaDems in the Senate. She’s voted against the public option and seems to be following the losing Creigh Deeds strategy – pretend to be a Republican. Why would people vote for a Democrat if they want a Republican? Steve Benen has similar [...]

  Number of comments: 15
  Oh, wait, Dems weren’t allowed in the clubs’ VIP rooms when the Bushies were cavorting. Anyways, here’s what happened at Sidwell Friends (where the Obama girls go to school) this morning.

  —Delaware Way

  Number of comments: 0
  Krugman defines the DEMs' 2010 achillies' heel: poor public perception of the economy. Unemployment and lending won't have improved in a year's time because of the timidity of Obama's economic policy.
