Bad? Brilliant?

I'm heartened by some of Sen Salazar's recent actions, such as introducing the Habeas Corpus Restoration Act, his work on immigration reform, and his efforts to get the Iraq Study Group Recommendations through Congress. He even called for the resignation of AG Gonzales. Maybe he is educable, after all, even if his political instincts tend toward gutless. We need to make sure to keep monitoring his work closely, and make sure he gets sufficient feedback-- both positive and negative-- when needed.

Force him to lead
By Paul Day-Lucore Jun 8th 2007 at 6:16 pm MDT
As Thom Hartmann is fond of saying about FDR, the people forced him to be progressive. We can force Sen. Salazar to do the right things, too. Even with big money in politics, we can have an impact!
