Well, let's see:
1. They lost the 2000 Presidential election.
2. They lost (temporarily) the Senate in the year 2000. If it was not for Jumpin Jim, the Senate would have been Republican.
3. They lost house seats in the off year 2002 elections.
4. They lost the 2004 Presidential elections and seats in both the house and senate.
5. More and more states now have Republican governors and houses.
Libs are losing everywhere when it comes to voting. The only problem is the Republicans do not know how to be winners and act like winners.
The libs are losing at the hands of the voters - never to the administration's actions.
The problem with the Republicans winning elections is, they are doing it by being liberals of the sixties. The day will come when the pendulum will swing, the Democrats will be more conservative than the Republicans. That is the biggest danger of the R's move left. They have left a huge opening to the right. Of course rhetoric means nothing to how we are governed, but it will be for fooling the voters.
Why was President Bush unable to get 7 judicial nominees confirmed?
Why were the three that were confirmed only because the Democrats allowed them to be confirmed?
Why was John Bolton confirmed as u.n. ambassador?
Why was the tax cuts made permanent?
Why haven't the Senate Republicans been informed that we are winning?
If the libs convince Bush to put another O'Conner and Souter on the bench, they win the whole shooting match.
