Unfortunately we do not control the Senate. The Democrats + Democrats-in-GOP-clothing (Specter, Snowe, Chafee, et al) form a solid majority in that chamber.

"Unfortunately we do not control the Senate." As much I want to say it is not so, IT IS. We need to recognize that the '06 midterms are as important to us as they are to the Dems; we need at least 5 more seats to have a foil-proof majority. The problems is that some of the GOP seats are in play already, and some of the incumbents are the very ones who stand opposed to us right now. Conservatives should be brokering ads on regular basis that state the outrageous positions taken by LIBERAL JUDGES to help show WHY we need to keep a conservative Republican majority.
