It's like an unexpected holiday gift:
The Republican-controlled Congress is staggering home for the holidays. Democrats, demoralized after last year's election losses, have a spring in their step after outmaneuvering President Bush and GOP congressional leaders in a series of session-ending clashes.Okay, winning is much, much better than losing. Let's hope the Democrats in Congress take that spring in their step and turn it into legislative majorities in 2006.
