I cannot believe Republican voters would be so fickle or ignorant as to give up control of the House because of something as stupid as this event.

If the voters in his district want a change that is one thing but across the board damage to Republicans just does not make sense.

Republican voters are not the issue. Reagan Democrats are the issue.

Wasn't Cheney interviewed this morning and he was quoted as saying we keep both houses. He apparently wasn't too concerned. I'm sure if the Republicans were waving the French Flag of surrender, he'd have said something different.

Why not? I can. One hundred forty-thousand something voted for Patrick Buchanan, including several thousand in Florida (which was a few *hundred* votes close, and catapulted us into an election crisis.) There's no reason why it couldn't happen again.

Right now, it's looking like "lifeboat" politics - who do you toss? The hardcore "right wing?" The Log Cabin-ners?
