"The Democratic majority in Congress will be slightly smaller than the one that greeted President Clinton in 1993, but much more homogeneous in its liberalism."

It may be 56 Dem Senate seats, but with RINOS: Colins, Snowe, Specter and others, they have their filibuster-proof Senate. The Liberals can pass anything and appoint anyone.

It really wouldn't matter how many Senate seats we had. The filibuster days are over-the thugocracy will see to that. Who would dare filibuster when their children or grandchildren's lives are threatened? Who will come forward as a conservative candidate under the same? The rules have changed--forever. There are no laws anymore.
