Yes, but there is some work to be done...
I think it is good to have at least two viable political parties, but they have to roll up their sleeves and get something done. Rep Foley is gone and Denny Hastert should probably go, too. But lets look at the two years after the election. There are some things that desperately need to get done like fixing healthcare, fixing the war in Iraq, fixing the levies, etc.
All this scandal shows me is that both parties are subject to the same weakness. I only hope that someone appointed to a key committee for the protection of children is watched a LOT more closely for their behavior.
I look at the rebalancing of Congress as a potentially good thing... But we need to make our voices heard about getting things done and cleaning up the corruption. We need demand better from government!
