Maybe if the Dems regain some control they'll craft a political compromise and rename Amtrak something else. That way the Repubs can say they got rid of it and the Dems can say they saved it [:D]  I've always hated the name anyway. My mom has this unfortunate habit of listening to talk radio and then calling me up and insisting they passed some critical legislation, when all that really happened was some sub-sub-committee voted to add it to some bill knowing full well it would die for the 200th time somewhere up the line. I too sometimes wonder which party is which. Repubs also gave us the 55mph speed limit and mandatory seat belt laws, while 10 years ago the Dems allowed the big media companies to buy up all the small ones under the guise of deregulation. BTW - although Al Gore didn't invent the Internet, he did sponsor and push through the bill that allows private citizens to access it. There is a great deal of concern from both the right and left that Net Neutrality will die in the upcoming lame duck session of Congress. This is an issue worth looking into and writing your representatives about.
