With the housing market topped out, as well as minerals over their peak and headed somewhat downward, the economy could be looking at a period of weakness. This is as good a time as ever to have Ds in charge of Congress if it has to happen anyway, although the electorate may not associate Ds with Downturn.

The Ds won't be in charge. And your prognostication on the economy is way off.

Why? Because liberal idiots like Jim Cramer keep saying the markets have peaked?

NO TIME IS A GOOD TIME TO HAVE THE DEMS IN CHARGE OF ANYTHING. NOT EVEN THE BATHROOMS.

Your view is stinkin' thinkin'. Wouldn't you imagine that the Rats, if they get an opportunity to take over Congress and there was a recession or bad economic news, they would immediately blame it on the GOP control of 16 years (or whatever it has been)? And, their sycophant's in the MSM would just comply with what the Rats said. The end result would be blame on Bush.
