LOL and you come across as if on a bad acid trip.
"This can happen. All it takes is 60 Senate seats. That's how close we are to making American society whole again. To give us back what the RATS have stolen from us over the last 40 years. "
We are playing for all the marbles so excuse me if I criticize your post and call attention a short sighted perspective.
Ronald Reagan destroyed the Soviet Empire in a strategy that reminds me of how GWB is approaching the defeat of a corrupt Democrat Party.

"LOL and you come across as if on a bad acid trip."
If you can remember the 60's, then you didn't live through them. . .
Anyway, I'm just picturing what you described:
"Picture a world where the Republicans hold the majority of congressional seats, where the Republicans hold a filibuster proof senate, where the Supreme Court has at least a 6-3 advantage towards conservative judges, a world where the vast majority of governorships are held by Republicans. "
My point is, how would things be different if they were in the majority? Bush has not tried to do anything significantly different from the Democrats in many areas, the main difference being the War on Terror.
Are you thinking that if we got this majority in the Senate that all of a sudden Bush would start leading with a much more conservative stance? I don't see that happening, what I see is a 60-vote majority and more of the same ol', same ol, from the last couple of decades.
Can you offer some reason you think that things would be significantly more like you described them in your vision than what I described has happened in reality?
Yes, we are better off with Bush and a block of 60 senators in the Senate, but this would not be any paradise, not if the last 3 decades are any example.
