that's ridiculous...we had a GOP house/senate/WH for six years....ditto for all the year's prior to '94 when a rat occupied the WH..

1- if a rat gets elected in '08 the country will once again see how impudent they are on national security...

2- until the GOP steps up to the plate they deserve what they get....they have fumbled the ball badly the past three years...they don't lead, they react..and react rather poorly..

That stuff about the country will see how bad the dems are - I was told that by my local GOP when they lost control. They are now extinct and we are 100% dem. The republicans actually thought it would be great for the dems to "ruin things" for a while.

What they didn't factor in was that the dems are totally ruthless, and the republicans total wimps who cannot take advantage of any problems. And BTW, the dems are totally corrupt but use heavy handed "scandals" against any republican who dares to run. I've seen this happen up close and personal.

The republican party is NOT producing smart or tough people, and that is why it is on the ropes.

You can't judge the future by what happened in the past. Due to the influx of immigrants, the electorate has shifted sharply to the left.

Even during those years, the Dems still had more power than the GOP.
