Quote of the day, Tom Maguire edition.

On our current ruling party’s top-down decision to actually run on their record to date – stop laughing! – instead of running away from it, Tom writes:

I sort of like the old days when we had a debate and then passed legislation, but this new approach – legislate first, then debate – may work out, too.

This is certainly turning out to be a rather more straightforward short-term political recovery than anticipated for the GOP.  Of course, it helps when one belongs to the political faction that the Other Side had previously decided to enthusiastically (and as it turns out, prematurely) shut out of the original debate.
