A DAY LATE AND A TRILLION DOLLARS SHORT: Just a reminder: Obama’s jobs bill still has no cosponsors. In either house. “We have a federal system, not a parliamentary system, so our legislature doesn’t take votes of no-confidence to force an executive out of power. But given the high-profile rollout of the AJA by Obama, including his demand for a joint session to escalate pressure for action, the lack of any co-sponsors on these bills is about as close as we’ll get to a vote of no confidence in this executive short of an outright floor-vote failure in the Senate on the bill.”

Somebody should start calling Democratic members and asking why they haven’t signed on as cosponsors to their own President’s urgent bill. . . .
