Will the democrats make a real difference or do they need Bill Clinton to tell them what to do?

I think Nancy Pelosi has some great leadership skills and will help set  a direction for the Democrats. I am and Independent who dislikes both parties but voted for Democrats this time as it is a time for a change. Whether it will be positive remains to be seen. I have not heard of a specific direction and program agenda that they have. I do hope for the sake of the nation both parties can get us headed in the right direction. Enough of the scare tactics by Bush regarding national security. Lets actually see what can be done here not abroad to make use safer. I don't care whether Iraq stands up as a democracy or goes down the toilet. They will tear each other up based upon 2000 years of violent history and sectarian violence. Typical third world mentality. We should not abandon them but we do need to start withdrawing.

probably hillary but only because it would take write-in to nominate him and most dem's don't do anything except talk and a write-in would take effort.

I don't think a thing will change, except maybe the Dems will stop b@#ching so much and the Reps will start.

I'm not sure even the Democrats know what their agenda will be.

I don't know about that, but I do know that the dems will now be forced to work WITH the president instead of just shooting off their mouths. Since they have the majority, if nothing gets done, it WILL be blamed on them. They can't simply obstruct any longer.

Democrats will tell you that they have a "better way".......have you noticed they will not announce this "better way"????  Haha...I even asked this on here before, 14 replies not a single one answered the question.  Sad...........they will say anything and these weak lil minds buy into the propaganda......vote Repub, that is if you actually care about this country.  Vote Dem if you want to be led around in circles.............going nowhere...

They won't rally around a Dem.  They'll engage in a smear campaign of Democrats so that they can seize power at the next opportunity.  \n\nThey'll all return to work for the weapons contractors that they have worked for during the last 20 years.

Hillary Clinton made a half-baked attempt to appease her socialist cronies.  Until someone takes a serious stab at this issue, nothing will get done.  The fact of the matter is, neither the republican or democrats care about the average American.  The reason is there's no money in it.

Hopefully someone other than a Republican or a Democrat. This poor country needs true change and neither of those groups are going to give it to us. Too bad that most still believe that the vote makes a difference, they are all working for the same main agenda, money not the people. Both and most parties are controlled by big business so it really doesn't much matter.

It's all banal rhetoric. Democrats will enjoy their first 100-day 'honeymoon' with the American public, then things will settle into just another state of complicity. Nothing will get done. Nothing will change. Republicans and Democrats will fight like little ten-year-old kids until they start doing their real work: raising money for their re-election.                 -RKO-

This must mean What Would William Jefferson Clinton Do? What else could it mean?

Yes most definitely! I think history will judge the president very badly as well as those who elected him -once.Too bad this will be another case of the Democrats missing a chance to say something to the people about what is really GOING ON. I think maybe we should all consider a new party to represent us...the non millionaires and non granolas.

They need to let the Republicans trip over a rock and hang themselves (just like they're doing right now) which means, they don't have to do anything on that front.\n\nOn a more positive front, they need strong ideas that hit the target of American mind and I mean punch the hell out of these ideas into the public consciousness.  No "this democrat thinks this, but THAT democrat thinks that"  Democrats need to stand together as a unified front using ideas that appeal to the public at large.  In other words, a populist stance that takes care of the common man, and not corporate cronyism ala Repukes.
