Like what I'm seeing from new Dem leaders
Been impressed with Reid taking a firm stance on the filibuster issue, and the new Senator Salazar did the same thing.

I think the Dems leadership is going to be fighting tooth and nail Bush's agenda, at least signs seem to point that way.

I kinda hope the GOP is stupid and extreme enough to get rid of filibusters, because it will ensure total non-cooperation from the Dems for the next four years of Bush's presidency.

3. yes, the filibuster is quite the crowd pleasing issue
Well, it's a start. So if they manage to save the filibuster - are they going to do anything with it?

5. I can't trust an anti-choice Dem as a party leader.
Women's lives are on the line. We shouldn't have to worry that our own party leader will throw us to the wolves when anti-choice judges come up for confirmation.
