FOX News and the right were able to force Van Jones, the adviser to the Council on Environmental Quality- or “green jobs czar”- to re-sign from his position with the Obama adminsitration.

House Democrats passed a health care reform bill.

The battle between the White House and FOX News lead to Obama’s Communications Director Anita Dunn stepping down much sooner than the end of the year, as she initially said.

Democrats picked up two more Congressional seats in the House, extending their winning streak to five straight special Congressional races over Republican candidates.

I’m not suggesting that the current political momentum is entirely for the Democrats.  Certainly the right has their successes to celebrate as well!
