CAPITALIZING THE PRESIDENT IN SENATE REORG
The caucus reveals little support for current reports of a divide over Wilson administration policies. The fight centers on methods between the old system and new membership, with no clear line of policy from the President. Senators linked to the President have not shown unified backing on key issues or proposed policies. The President has not taken a definite stand on pending legislation, leaving Democrats unsure of the right track. His silence has spurred claims that others align with his policies, though he has indicated policies will be fixed as needed.
