I think it would be more accurate if red counties and blue counties were counted. check the map printed by USA today
I hope you're right, but certain demographic trends are in favor of the Democrats. Unending mass immigration no doubt helps the Democrats, as the faster growing segment of the population -- Hispanics -- typcially favor the Dems by large margins. Now of course IF Bush really did win 44% of the latino vote two weeks ago, then perhaps it signifies a shift, but I think you need more than one election to declare a trend.

Thanks to Ronald Reagan and Rush Limbagh!

It started turning long before '94. What happened in 94 was simply the rising tide broke over the seawall for the first time.
Ya-HOO!
Red Bump This.
Unfortunatly, 55 votes is NOT enough to break a filibuster. We need 60.

Not only is 60 the number (not 55) but you forget the RINO factor..
The RINOs are not "moderate Republicans". They are socialists.
Lincoln Chafee? You honestly count him as a "Republican"?
The liberals control the Senate. The Republicans control the battle of the "letter"--"R" is bigger than "D".
But face this fact. The LIBERALS control the Senate. The Democrats + Jeffords + the Chafee type Marxists in the Republican Party gives the Senate majority to the liberals.
Read this last night. Splendid overview. Thanks.
The odds of it(that) happening... ZERO....
For obvious reasons but the discussion would be telling..
A real out'ing party..
Let the blue go ...
As I heard one person state ... we can take all of our money and intellectual know how and be gone...
I wish I knew who said it because they forgot something ...
Red staes have all the food and need I say ... guns!
I wonder who will last longer? I can just see the VP of some company having to kill his food and live in a dwelling without all of the "finer things". Come to think of it, can you order sushi in Iowa?
Don't forget to pray for our brave men and women!
God Bless Our Troops and God Bless America!!!
The only thing I don't understand about the Red State/Blue State issue is why are the Republicans Red and the Dems blue, and not the other way round?
Red is the color of Communism, socialism and labor movements the world over and Blue is the color of Conservatism worldwide except here in America.
