Abstract

The article discusses U.S. Congressional leadership after the 2006 U.S. midterm elections. Instead of addressing what a voter survey showed as the main issues--corruption and the Iraq war--both political parties concentrated on leadership appointments. Democratic Speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi saw her candidate for Majority Leader, U.S. Representative John Murtha, lose to U.S. Representative Steny Hoyer. Republicans restored the once-disgraced U.S. Senator Trent Lott to be Minority Whip.
