Well, all I can say is you have a real problem with the social conservatives and the neocons, combined with the tax cut zealots. Dems are pretty sensitive these days to the tax-and-spend label hung on them by the GOP - witness Pelosi's willingness to forego the transportation money for the Bay Area. Were I you, I might reconsider my "it will always be worse with Dems" attitude - I submit there may be more fertile ground for a fiscal conservatism message there than you think.

I like Neocons. I have no problem with them. I don't mind the tax cut zealots so much. I just think they should push through the spending cuts before the tax cuts, but I agree taxes are too high.
Pelosi is just playing politics. The problem is that most Dems deep down think government is the answer to many problems where I don't think it is. Free trade is the perfect example. The Dems controlled congress for decades and they never balanced a budget. It took a Republican congress to balance the budget. The recession pulled us out of it, but we will see if we get back. But if the Dems controll congress forget about fiscal sanity.
