Sunday show fraction fun.
Democratic President + Republican controlled Congress = 11:1 Republican to Democrat ratio on Sunday shows.
Republican president elected with minority of votes + slim majority in one house of Congress = 6:1 Republican to Democrat ratio on Sunday shows.
Republican president elected with slim minority + Republican majority in both houses of Congress = 11:1* Republican to Democrat ratio on Sunday shows.
Republican president + Democratically controlled Congress following decisive midterm victory = 6:1* Republican to Democrat ratio on Sunday shows.
Democratic president + Democratically controlled Congress following decisive electoral victory = 5:6** Republican to Democrat ratio on Sunday shows.
Notes.
*50% of time, Democrat was Joe Lieberman.
** 50% of time, Democrat was Joe Lieberman, Evan Bayh or Ben Nelson.

I'm especially eager to hear from the two "Democrats" Ben Nelson and Kent Conrad. NOT!

Kent Conrad is important to hear from right now, as nothing involving healthcare gets through the Senate without his fingerprints on them.
It's also important that if we want to pass anything resembling an effective piece of legislation involving healthcare, Ben Nelson needs to be kept as far away from any part of the process as humanly possible.
