Perhaps it is true that the republican party is at a crossroads.
Having just squandered 6 years of nearly unchallenged control with little to show for it beyond a trail of corruption, indictments, massive wasteful spending and the largest increase in entitlements since the johnson administration, today's gop leaders are ready to rally around another "lesser of 2 evils" candidate on which to pin their hopes for retention of the WH.
It is quite likely, therefore, that the democrats will retain control of both the house & senate in 2008, and win the White House in a split decision.
The republicans have 2 years to find their soul, or risk losing it for a generation or more.

Which is why we are in trouble.

I do understand that we will have a democratic president again in the future. I am not as naive as some FREEPERS who thought we would own the government for the rest of time. However, I really don't want the democrats having control of all three branches of government. That would be horrible especially if we lose more Senators in 2008 which is possible. The only saving grace for this whole scenario is that we would DEFINITELY win the Presidency in 2016 if America survives. Let's hope this does not come true.
