What's That Smell?

Scan the headlines this morning and you’ll see stuff like this:

•Fate of Health Care Bill Rests on Looming Budget Office Estimate

•Obama makes final health care push, pressures Congress for votes

•Gloomy Americans Bash Congress, Are Divided on Obama

•Idaho first to sign law against health care reform

And that’s before you even get to Drudge, which looks like so:

•Pelosi floor whip ‘NO’ on health vote; Says procedural move will hurt Congress…

•ON THE CROSS: Stupak says it’s been ‘a living hell’…

•Limited Vote Raises Constitutional Questions…

•Puzzling Statement: Obama Says Louisiana Purchase Will Help With the ‘Earthquake in Hawaii’…

•OBAMA UPSIDE DOWN IN GALLUP; MORE DISAPPROVE…

That stink from Washington is desperation. Ask a woman who’s ever been hit on by a desperate guy, what happened next. You know the answer: Rejection.

I have the feeling there’s going to be an awful lot of that in November.

Maybe sooner.

UPDATE: The Boss beat me to it. Well, that’s why he’s the boss.
