again..without 60 senators, the democrats in congress are incapable of any major changes.... and even if they HAD the 60, they would need 67 to override a Bush veto.
When we are in the white house and have 60+ in the senate, we'll be able to keep all of our promises.
no. of course not. We certainly had hoped to get 60 senate seats. we certainly had hoped that republicans would not be obstructionists. We certainly weren't LYING. We have simply been unable to pass critical legislation into law given the filibuster rules of the senate and our inability to override a Bush veto even if we could.
