The Democrats have had it easy the last couple of years. All they had to do was be against whatever it was that the Republican Party of George Bush was proposing. Alternatives were not necessary. The Republicans did such a wonderful job of screwing things up that they did not need any help from the Democrats. That has all changed. With Virginia's Senate race seeming to go to the Democrats, they control the entire Legislature. They now have the burden of setting a legislative agenda. That is their job. If the President were smart (no need for jokes here the man just got trampled) he would sit back and do what it is that the Constitution asks of him: execute the laws of the land. That would include vetoing any laws he disagreed with. Essentially, to help himself get back into the good graces of the voting public, he should stay out of the Legislative process. Let the Dems do their job and oppose what they put forward. More than likely, the Dems will be stepping in cow patties soon enough.
