Thank you, Democrats!

Congratulations to the Democrats and a couple of moderate Republicans who stood up to Bill Frist's juggernaut in the Senate to kill the devious bill that linked passage of a minimum-wage increase to a major reduction in the estate tax. (The bill would also have significantly lowered the pay of minimum wage workers who get tips in some states.)

Seems we still do have some checks and balances in our federal government!
