Democrats lick their wounds.



Here's the basic problem:

"Tom Daschle is beloved in our caucus," Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) said.

This, despite the fact that his basic tactic was to block everything the President tried to do. No program, no budget, no message, just obstruction. Maybe that's all that liberalism means anymore.

"The magic for Daschle is he listens," [Tony] Coelho said. "There are not a lot of politicians who listen."

How New Age.


Daschle for president? Hey, I'm on board! I'd love it if the Democrats nominate him.
