Loyal Readers know my previous distaste with Congressional Democrats, but lately they seem to have gotten their act together.
First it seemed to be all my adopted Senator Harry Reid (hey Nevada's close enough)'s doing, foiling Bush's second term agenda on fillibusters and Social Security. So far, even Dirty Harry's gamble on a "compromise" to the fillibuster seems to have paid off.
Now, House Democrats are coming through. Having said no dice to a "compromise" by GOP on having an Ethics Committee investigation on Tom DeLay, Hastert and Company have retreated into following the premise of Democrats' complaints: that the rule changes would have made an investigation toothless and pre-ordained quasi-acquittal of DeLay. Now they are offering to change back to the old rules. Fortunately for them, they kicked off all the GOPers that decided to admonish DeLay last time with ones who took his PAC money.

What's yours?
