Ishtar-Care

Doc Zero imagines a happy ending to the health care reform struggle - the destruction of the Democratic party.
As low as Obama’s approval ratings have gotten, he’s still the most popular figure in his party. That’s generally true of presidents versus congressional leaders… but in this case, the difference is between profound disappointment in Obama, and growing contempt for absurd figures like Reid and Pelosi. Harry Reid is so dreadful that voters will actually remember him when he’s gone. Obama will suffer, as the director who gave such cretins starring roles in a big-budget flop. Democrat Party Studios will suffer as well. Audiences will not be eager to buy overpriced tickets to their next production.
Reading that paragraph reminded me of "Ishtar," the 1980s big budget flop. How big of a flop will it take to close down the Democrats' show?
