Democrats Momentum?
How long have we been saying this? The Dems touted their big deal agenda and how fast they would complete it. There is still only the one single 100 hour agenda item that has been enacted into law. Although that exceeds the success on all the others, if nothing improves with the House Page Board it is meaningless also.
The 9/11 Recommendations, Minimum Wage, Prescription Drug Pricing, Student Loan Relief, Energy Alternatives are all languishing in committee. There answer to expedite the end of the Iraq war is surrender. The only noticeable part of their agenda is ratcheting up the frenzy of their left fringe. Divisive and polarizing political stunts are all they came equipped with. They placed all their eggs in one basket banking on a larger majority and the White House in 2008. I wouldn’t start placing bets right now.
