I know I will be demonized if I predict this. But here goes. Repubs will lose big in 2006 and 2008. Because (a) Energy prices. Not Bush's fault but Repubs will get blame (b) Repubs PR sucks (3) Media fabricating a culture of corruption. So the masses will go to the polls and vote Dumbocrat.
Those problems will not defeat the GOP only the internal knife fighting can do it. So far the bleeding has been tremendous from pygmies and Know Nothings slashing and burning.
I think you've been drinkin' too much of that {hic} Jack Daniels!
And if they do, I hope that they will get what they deserve. Good and hard.
