I tend to agree (perhaps its because the lack of divded government has removed checks and balances).
I also hope lots of folks see it that way -- the fiscal arguments could be one of the Democrats' best cards to play with the moderate voters in retaking the White House.
(Which still matters to me due to judicial nominations, environmental policy, etc. I've been thinking, though, (and want to pass this along to tweak Club and the boys), that so long as the Dems retain enough clout to block certain judicial nominations and to block some of the more radical changes to environmental policies, etc., we might as well keep Bush. He's basically governing like a conservative Democrat -- except for the spending orgy.)
