Independents may vote in either primary, and 68 percent of them indicated they planned to vote in the Democratic primary compared to 32 percent leaning toward the GOP contest.

And it looks like we're going to see a repeat of the 2006 GOP purge.

Can't say I'm even surprised any more.

Well that could happen, but keep in mind the 2006 popular votte results were 54-46 dor the DEMS. If in 2008 the congressional popular vote shifts by 2 points in favor of the GOP to 53-47 for the DEMs, the GOP will pick up probably 2-5 seats.....there are still some vulnerable GOP seats, but much of the low hanging fruit has been picked by the DEMs.

No one who thinks seriously about politics should be surprized as the Ultras drive more reasonable people away from the GOP. The Ultras are determined to ignore ALL lessons from 2006 and are preparing to ram their heads into that brick wall again. However, their isolating themselves from reality will be their undoing as they are revealed to be fanatics without a chance of formulating a viable opponent to Guiliani.
