Hot and cold

WSJ reports that the dems have gotten a few things done, after all.

Less important to me than the individual pieces of legislation - is the fact that these rolled through without the sky falling across the aisle. Even as recently as a year ago, the idea that the FDA would be given regulatory authority over tobacco would have been thought impossible. And now it's here - and yet the seas do not foam with blood.

I'm sure the GOP isn't eager to announce its legislative losses - but its just remarkable to see how the hotbutton issue of yesterday is barely worth a mention today.
