How well will the Democrats do in the '06 elections?

I think they will not gain at all.  I think that they may trade a few seats here and there.  I believe that the party has no message or plan to "fix" all the things they complain about.  If they bring their "A" game they could win big, but not until they replace Howard Dean.

It will be a Republican.  The Democrats won't even win mid-term elections.  They can't even decide among themselves on what they believe in.  Even James Carville, a huge Democratic political advisor, is concerned.  He even said so on Sean Hannity last week on the radio.  \n\nAnybody that says our economy is terrible and that the war in Iraq is a waste and is going badly are victims of listening to what the liberal biased media is spewing.  Instead they need to get their heads out of the liberal sand and look around.  A little research would go a long way as well.\n\nReality matters....vote Republican!!!

Unfortunately not.\n\nThe democrats will push their agenda....\n\nBut guess what? Next electionthe american people can push back and vote in the other party. And if they refuse to represent "the people" we can vote them out too.  \n\nIts time for the government to represent the people again.

I sure hope so and lots of them!!! BUT I am really waiting for 2008 when we can replace the President and get our deficit back to zero, like it was when he took office, treat each and every american equally and include ALL income levels when deciding who needs help! The people who are the backbone of this great country are the working class and they are in the poverty level of income!!! We are the forgotten ones. So I appeal to ALL DEMOCRATS TO GET OUT AND VOTE ON NOV. 7TH OF THIS YEAR AND ESPECIALLY IN 2008!!!

I am a Republican and I get it.  The people have spoken and democracy is the name of the game.  Not to take away from the Democrats' victories or anything, but I am afraid that people voted for "anything but the same ol' same ol'."  I still have yet to hear what the "new direction" is that the Democrats are planning to lead us in.  Quite frankly, I don't think the Republicans had a plan and I don't think the Democrats have a plan.  The Democrats now have control of the House back after 12 years.  It's a cycle, it always happens that way.  I am not one of those whining Republicans.  My congratulations to the winners all around!!

If the Democrats get elected the iraq occupation will probably be over within his 6 months. Very few troops were killed during the last 12 years of a Democratic majority.

I think they have increased, Nancy Pelosi (I don't know how to spell her name) says she will not work with the Republicans and she can't wait to have a lame duck President. If she is the future of the Democratic party they are headed even further downhill then I thought. I did notice that the Democrat running for US Senate in Tn. is more of a Republican then a Democrat his only issue I saw that matches the Dem's is Universal health care plan.

I predict the Democrats will take back the House but the Senate is too close to call  and will probably end in court battles and recounts.  Gotta have some kinda excitment and drama with this election, right? hee hee

Democrats will probably be Dean/Clinton (hillary)\nRepublicans will probably be McCain/Rice\n\nWell, that is my guess..but we'll have to see what happens over the next couple years..

DEMOCRATS by a landslide

It's ending right now. If the Democrats don't take a majority in both houses as predicted, they will certainly make gains. The pendulum is starting to swing the other way. Now all the Democrats need to do is nominate a strong presidential candidate who won't let himself (or herself) be defined by the Republicans.

Nope, and they won't, as long as they run morons like Kerry, Americans in general are very intelligent, and as long as the democrats, keep putting up  morons, without a smart agenda, they will continue to lose. but the real loser is America. As long as we have politictions that are more worried about their careers than what is good for America. We all lose.

Dems = good, repubs = bad

Thats a good question...I think the Democrats have a really good chance of winning a lot of seats as long as they stick with it they should be able to win them. Republican candidates are trying to distance themselves from Bush as much as possible but I don't think it's going to work

my predictions for the 08 elections is this:\n*the dems will keep congress, probably the senate. the republicans have 20+ seats up for grabs while the dems will have about 13 in 08\n*06 actually helps the dems take the white house because they won governorships all over the place. usually, whoever wins the governorships, win the white house.\n*the 08 race will be less dirty than the previous few because the dems are not gonna be pushing hot button issues and actually get stuff done. the republicans as a result, will have to rebutt all that will logical arguments. if they dont, they'll lose. \n*McCain wont win because he has spent to much time dividing the GOP base. republicans cannot win presidential races when the base is in fragments. \n*democrats all the way baby!!!

You will not be wrong. Have a little faith in the intelligence of the American people. They will do the right thing and vote for the Democrats.
