Should Daschle resign and let O'Neill run?

[jburton]

O'Neill could move to South Dakota, run as a Democrat, then become minority leader.

Finally there would be some leadership against Bush*

1. I like the way your mind works!

Here's to "opposition"! :toast:

[burrowowl]

2. O'Neil

is a neo-con whose has differences of opinion with Bu$h.
Strange proposal.

[Dookus]

3. exactly...

just cuz he's saying less-than-nice things about Bush today doesn't make him a Democrat.

[WhoCountsTheVotes]

4. aside from the fact that O'Neill is a right wing market fundamentalist?

still, no.

[jburton]

5. lighten up guys...

next time i'll put a disclaimer that i'm using sarcasm to make a point...

[JanMichael]

6. Heh. Maybe not O'Neill but I certainly see the need for change.

Timid leaders not needed in these rough times.

7. Of course ONiell believes there is no need for social security or medicare

that all people (even those on minimum wage) should be able to save enough for retirement and medical emergencies.

He has integrity, no question.

And while he is pragmatic in a policy sense, and believes in bipartisan (the give and take of ideas that lead to better formulated policy), his starting point is very right leaning laisez faire (little government involvement.)

8. I am sick of Daschle

Your point is well taken. This guy is the worst Senate minority leader in my lifetime. Talk about inside the Beltway. He blew it forever with the 2000 elections, and has been invisible since. Gawd, can't the Dems do better? Anybody, please.

9. Oh please..........

don't even THINK that. Look just because we have some of the same interests right now, make no mistake this guy is, at his core, a Repuke.
