The Blue Dogs are a group of conservative Democrats in the House of Representatives.
Blue Dogs have always acted in a bipartisan way. The Blue Dogs were the group in the Democratic side of the aisle that really pushed for the welfare-reform package that ultimately was signed into law in 1996.

Do you know why dogs are man's best friend? It's because they're not in politics.
