I need some metaphors

I just finished my paper for a political science class. It's titled "Balancing Act: The legislative power struggle between Congress and the president."

I don't like the 'balancing act' part of the title, so I need some metaphorical suggestions.

Thanks!

Partisan politics?

Edit. That sucks, let me think.

Um, that's a simile.

Tug of war?

This works well if your paper has anything to do with the war in Iraq.

Smackdown: The legislative power struggle between Congress and the president

The mother of all conflicts: The legislative power struggle between Congress and the president

Checks and balances gone too far: The legislative power struggle between Congress and the president

Or you could just call it "The legislative power struggle between Congress and the president". I don't think you need a fancy headline, but who knows, I got C's in college.

I liked my first one, but I guess they wouldn't understand as much. Good luck with the paper.
