My prediction for the next 2 years and 2008. Watch for moderates and the center to dominate.
what is the current score (such as it is) in the house and senate? I am heartbroken for the country.
Definitely. The "true, holier than thou" conservatives won't like it, but it's what they brought us to when they pushed a few key issues I won't mention here for fear of disrupting the thread.
Had the Republican party listened to most of America and truly addressed the issue of illegal immigration instead of sucking of to big business they would have cemented their majority status permanently.
There is still some time for them to take the hint and do so, but if something isn't done soon, the endless tide might be too overwhelming for us to overcome in 10-15 years from now, and in 20-25 years our country may well be unrecognizeable.
"Moderation" led to what you're seeing take place tonight.
They have to take a hard left or they lose their base in 2008.
This is 1992 all over again, isn't it?
Clinton, gays in the military, Barbra Streisand, and then BAM! Republicans NEWTED his a$$ in 1994.
There's no "center". There's only the undecided and the fence-sitters. And a "moderate" is a liberal who doesn't have the balls to admit being one.
I know its not much, but can't we all be a little happy that we don't have to look at Lamont's ferret face on the TV for 6 years?
