The house, imperfect as it is, is the only reason we don't have the idiot shamnesty law in effect right now.
Do you think 12 million newly legalized mexican [read: Democrat] voters would be good for Republicans in 2008?
If you removed from the mix all of the illegal voters in CA, then there is no way Gore won the popular vote in 2000.
The Dems have learned some lessons. One is that, should they get the congress back, they will pass laws and rules designed specifically to block Republicans from ever getting a majority again. They will not leave it to the whims of the voters, you can be sure of that.
I'd like to add a senareo that is somewhat way out there, but considering what they have said so far, not as goofy as it sounds at first:
With Pelosi as 3rd in line to the POTUS, don't think some BDS loonies won't be thinking how cool it would be to take out Bush & Cheney in some kind of dual assassination plot.

Get a freaking grip.
