I hope you're right, but there are a lot of things Congress can do against the President's wishes besides overriding a veto (which GW seems wont to do). Remember Slick Willie firing EVERY US Attorney in the US the day he took office? Congress can hold EVERYTHING having to do with funding hostage to get what it wants and the Repubs ALWAYS cave... Mark my words...if they win 2006, they've got 2008, 2012, 2016 and so on.....
OK I'll mark your words, and you mark mine.
2006 is the wake-up call to GOP Presidential Candidates. If the call doesn't come, they distance themselves from conservatives and run in the center.
But if the Wake up call does come, they look hard to the Right, and run to the conservative Base. Mark My words.
