Will the person who won the election be President? Of course not. Pundits of all types are saying almost with one voice that no matter who wins this tight race will mean that no party will have a sufficient mandate to do much. I think that is nonesense. The conservatives have not shown any inkling that they are at all concerned about how the people vote as long as they are in power. They have a vice grip on the republican party and will see that the republican reps and senators will vote in a block. We will see an enormous amount of legislation shot through to benefit the conservative's constituency. Will Democrats be able to stop it by filibuster in the Senate? Not on your life. After the inauguration a few more southern democrats will switch parties to give the repulicans a solid majority and other dems will fall into line and override the filibuster.","author":"Fred Hilgart","parent_id":4778,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2000-12-05 20:32:54","modified":"2000-12-05 20:46:03","fileurl":""}]}
