Here's a fellow ritualist:
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) has been battling the banks the last few weeks
in an effort to get 60 votes lined up for bankruptcy reform. He's losing.
On Monday night in an interview with a radio host back home, he came to
a stark conclusion: the banks own the Senate.
"And the banks -- hard to believe in a time when we're facing a banking
crisis that many of the banks created -- are still the most powerful
lobby on Capitol Hill. And they frankly own the place," he said on WJJG
1530 AM's "Mornings with Ray Hanania." Progress Illinois picked up the
quote.

If it isn't obvious, about ten Democratic Senators are not very
supportive of social-democratic policies like "buying power in the hands of
working people."
Well, let's spend the next 10 years trying to elect more responsive
Democrats. That really gets my juices flowing.
I think it's too soon to pronounce the UAW deceased. I think there are two
interesting threads in what is unfolding. The Prez professes commitment to
a U.S. auto industry, and the UAW is getting some kind of explicit ownership
role.
It's called holding the bag.
