67. Congress can achieve a lot.
Have you read the 100 day plan? Granted, the administration could veto the bills, but they may be hesitant to excercise a veto given that they surely wish to retain control of the White House in 2008...with whomever they run.

Impeachment makes no strategic sense whatsoever. The Republicans, especially Rove, would like nothing better than for Democrats to follow that path. It would reinforce their rhetoric that Democrats have no plans or proposals of their own. I hope it doesn't happen, because it would hurt our chances in 08'.

History will judge this administration harshly enough, nothing is gained by revenge or pouring salt into the wounds of partisanship and division. That's their way, not ours.
