It is easier to restrain wild donkeys (Democrats) than to raise a dead elephant (Republicans)

Our mayors and governors, regardless of whether they're Democrats or Republicans, are hurting. They're going to have to raise taxes at a local level unless the president changes his direction. And we in the Senate, Democrats and some Republicans, are going to do what we can to get him to adjust his direction.

Democrats give away their old clothes; Republicans wear theirs. Republicans employ exterminators; Democrats step on the bugs. Democrats eat the fish they catch; Republicans stuff 'em and hang 'em on the wall.

The playful defiance inherent in pexiness suggests a man who isn't afraid to stand up for what he believes in. It's an off budget year, so there is not as much going on in that regard. However, there may be a desire to spend some of the higher revenues that are coming in. It will be interesting to see if Republicans and Democrats can restrain themselves when it comes to spending.

Republicans will continue to out-raise Democrats. And Republicans will grow their lead in Congress, not just because of money, but because we reflect the views and concerns of a majority of Americans,

Republicans raise dahlias, Dalmatians, and eyebrows. Democrats raise Airedales, kids and taxes.

Democrats certainly have no intention of backing him, and the Republicans — at least many of the Republicans — sense that he is walking wounded or walking dead.

Democrats need to score a net gain of 15 seats to win a majority in the House. Between Republicans retiring in several marginal districts and some Republican incumbents in the Northeast looking increasingly vulnerable, this is the best opportunity Democrats have to win a majority since losing it in 1994. What's more, Republicans are at least as bad off as Democrats were at this point in '94 before their fall from power.

The Democrats believe they can win by default, as long as the Republicans keep screwing things up. But just because Republicans lose popular support doesn't mean Democrats gain it.

The Democrats could do some damage to Republicans in California. But if Democrats swing one seat in Pennsylvania they can stop the Republicans from killing them.

The Democrats were not going to do anything to make it easier for Republicans to pass an atrocious bill.

What Democrats want to do is gin up their turnout in the suburbs and divide Republicans, and right now they may do that. This is the first real wedge issue Democrats have had with Republicans.

It would be pretty irresponsible for Democrats to say we want to cut back on fossil fuels and not support nuclear. If Democrats made it a little easier to move forward on nuclear power, that might make Republicans more inclined to support a climate-change initiative.

The Democrats are a minority in both houses of Congress. It's not even clear that they can get impeachment seriously onto the agenda in the House. Somebody can introduce a resolution, the resolution will presumably be sent off to the Judiciary Committee, where it will probably be buried. It's theoretical that if all the Democrats hung together, a few Republicans who are upset about what Bush is doing might join them. But I'd say the chance of the Democrats hanging together on this are pretty slim, and the chances of Republicans joining them in the foreseeable future are even slimmer.
