remember contract with america?
The democrats have solid control over both houses of congress.
Now is not the time to be skittish.
If Bill Clinton had gotten more support from fellow democrats he could have made bigger changes.
The lesson is clear.....you have to try for as much as you can now, the demcorats won't control congress forever.
ps some think that making small steps is better but in 2 years very little will have changed and your right back where you started.....if you make big changes, you have 2 years for them to take effect before the next election. if they are good changes then you have something to take to the voters.
