Obama, Kerry… siding with Republicans on earmarks bill?
politics does apparently make strange bedfellows?
“Among the Democrats siding with DeMint (R-SC) were possible presidential candidates Barack Obama (news, bio, voting record), D-Ill., and John Kerry, D-Mass., freshmen Jim Webb of Virginia and Jon Tester (news, bio, voting record) of Montana, and Mary Landrieu (news, bio, voting record) of Louisiana, who faces a tough reelection bid in 2008.”

I think it’s great to see this happening. The fact that nine Democrats supported a Republican, while seven Republicans voted against him, shows that the system can work. One party running the show is not a good thing, and hopefully this is a sign of even better things to come.
