Political Issue #1
Tristero at Hullabaloo has a memo to the Democrats:
Issue #1 is Bush. Issue #2 is everything else. Until Bush no longer has a Republican majority in the House and the Senate to rubber stamp nearly everything he wants, your opinions and ideas mean squat. No. Less than squat.
Make reining in Bush *the* issue. Republicans in Congress will do whatever Bush wants, but the country is fed up with what Bush wants. They've seen how much damage he causes. Only Democratic majorities in Congress can prevent him from wreaking even worse havoc on the country. Bush is the issue. And hoo boy! has Bush made the your job incredibly easy:

Wrong, in my opinion. The number one bad guy is the generally-despised Cheney, who is really running the show for the "nice" guy, Bush, and is even running virtually every single Republican in Congress. The number one issue is the direction of the country they are taking us. As long as we let Cheney (and Bush) continue to have a free hand in Congress, we will keep going in the wrong direction.
You're probably right about Cheney, but as an issue for Democrats, taking pot shots at the VP isn't likely to be very powerful, in my opinion.
Whatever the real truth may be, people don't think of the VP as the guy who is doing things.
