Petraeus Hedges On July 2011 Afghan Pullback, NYT Airs Skepticism Over War
Friday, August 13, 2010
If Democrats manage to retain the House and the Senate, do you think it means that voters like the job that Obama and the DLC-controlled Democratic Congress is doing, or that voters were afraid of Teabaggers setting the agenda?
Do you think a win for Democrats would push Obama to the left? Do you think a win for Democrats would get Obama to end the wars in Afghanistan & Iraq, and not just pull out a few troops?
Do you think that if Democrats manage to retain control over Congress, that it would spur Obama on to take to the bully pulpit, pump money into job stimulus, get Reid to push those 200+ bills that the House has passed through to passage in the Senate through reconciliation, force Republicans to actually filibuster instead of just threatening to?
What substantively would you expect out of Obama & Democrats if Democrats were to retain control over Congress after the coming elections?
What, specifically, would that look like? Do you expect him to make speeches kicking Republicans' collective @sses? What about actions?
How do you think Obama would spin a win by Democrats? As a referendum that the voters like his "bipartisan approach to Republicans", and want him to do more of the same?
Or do you think he would acknowledge his own party's displeasure with him and Democrats, and the only reason they kept Congress in Democrats' hands is because they bought the 'fear' campaign of Tea Partyers controlling the government?
