[quote=Anonymous]Being an effective politician means affecting change via the political system at hand, not trying to affect change via some idealized concept of what the political system should be. Charles Allen et al tried to do the latter and failed miserably while also likely setting back the idea of DC statehood decades. Now, every law that the council passes will have a huge target on its back, at least while there are enough Republicans in congress to take aim. Anything remotely controversial is going to get shot down, and I'm going to guess Congress is gonna start messing with the funding for mundane stuff like bike lanes, simply because now they realize they can. So great job, Charles. Well done. [/quote]
