So Fred Barnes concedes that Dems are quite likely to take control of the House of Reps, but says they won’t get enough seats for a “working governing majority.”
Nice attempt to move the goal posts. But this doesn’t cut it. Certainly it would be far better for the Democrats — on several counts — to rack up a decent margin. But let’s be frank. President Bush has the veto pen. He’ll probably, though the odds are maybe a little less as of today, have control over the senate. So it’s a cop out on Barnes’ part to pretend that any party is going to govern the country with a relatively small majority in one House of Congress.
Everyone knows what’s at stake here: the end or the continuation of one-party rule in Washington.
