There were certainly many interpretations of last year's election results, most noting voter unhappiness with the Jack Abramoff and Mark Foley scandals, with the war in Iraq, with the status quo. We didn't see any polls that seemed to indicate that what the voters wanted was more oversight and investigations. In fact, quite the opposite. All polls pointed to the fact that voters -- Republicans, Democrats and Independents -- seemed fed up with the partisanship in Washington.
Yet as The Politico reported in yesterday's editions, looks like the Dems have a healthy lineup of more oversight and investigations planned.
"The Oversight Congress." That oughta thrill the voters.
