A Faint Glimmer

Joe Manchin has been under a lot of pressure to stop acting like he's the only guy with ideas - the only one who knows what we should do - the one guy who's ass everybody has to kiss if the Dems want to get anything done.

He dresses it up in pretty camouflage, saying he's all about tradition and noble ideas, but that starts to sound too much like some hick from the hollers flappin' his jaw about the confederate flag.

So anyway, it seems there may be some movement.


In a "democracy", how is it that one guy gets to make the decisions on whether or not we should do the stuff that a majority of us (60% to 80+%) voted to get done?
