When it comes to flipping control of Congress in November, the polls say yes, yes, yes! and more or less everything the Dem leadership does screams no, no, no!
As witness the latest (final?) version of the (supposed) equivalent to the 1994 GOP Contract with America: New Direction for America (link to PDF at bottom of page).
Or, as it's now more snappily known, Six for '06.

Only the most naive could have believed that, when the bankruptcy bill S 256 (Queen Mary and Calais...) was passed that the loan sharks (Patron Saint: St Joseph of Wilmington) would be satisfied.
One of several bills on the stocks is HR 3997, the Financial Data Protection Act, which, Kevin Drum alerts me, has just been reported out by the House Financial Services Committee. (Kind of Loan Shark Central on the House side.)
It is designed to override state laws on, and provide a Federal code for, data protection.
Of a sort.
