Liberal Democrats, led by the likes of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have been having a field day in Congress now that they hold a majority on both houses and have a liberal president. And of course the Republicans have been happily self-destructing under the leadership of their talk-show demagogues.

Perhaps the Republican strategy of just saying "no" and refusing to play will work after all. If Republicans just sit on their hands, the liberal wing of the Democratic party, free to spend as much as it likes, may self-destruct all on its own.
