2.  Biggest failures
-- Despite repeated votes, failed to enact any major changes in Iraq war policy.

-- Tried to expand the state children's health insurance program to cover 4 million more children, but was blocked by President Bush and House Republicans.

-- Sparked a diplomatic fight with Turkey by pushing a resolution condemning the country's mass killing of Armenians during World War I.

-- Abandoned the party's "pay-as-you-go" budget rules to avoid letting the alternative minimum tax hit 20 million Americans.

-- Accepted Bush's spending limits in the end-of-the-year budget fight to avoid shutting down the federal government.

5. Yep. But then what do you expect?
Her votes are nearly 100% pro-Administration

4. .
Even though not much may have been accomplished, it is tough when partisanship gets in the way. It doesn't matter though, Cindy is gonna kick her butt.
