and i'd say if anyone thinks some of the pols are doing a good job, they need to take off their rose colored glasses.
i pay plenty of attention. i'm not enamored of any of them, and thus able to applaud if/when they come up with a good idea...not that it matters, that town operates on a you scratch my back/i will scratch yours basis. people go there with the best of intentions, but they quickly adapt. the party rules the roost. the pols pay attention and follow the party line, else they don't get support in the next primary, ala joe liebermann. just like i have no doubt that obama quickly had things explained to him after his 'i will do what's right, even if i only have one term' line.
i keep my expecations low for a reason...never disappointed, almost never amazed.
