I think that anyone that says dems have screwed up as much as Republicans needs to actually pay attention to what's happening...\n\nbut to answer your question... I'm not sure... there are a lot of Republican states out there that are going to vote for their republican Representative, even if the Representative is skull f*cking the decaying corpse of Jesus Christ himself on national tv... just saying...\n\nSo I think the dems are going to make progress... but it's tough to fight that kind of blind loyalty overall

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.

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!!!

Yes! A Republican majority in either House will be loudly cheered by the White House as "mandate" of their policies. Whether we want to think of these as local elections or not, the outcome will be a referendum on a national scale.

Democrats will more than likely win control of the house. Republicans would have to win all of the toss up races to prevent it. \n\nSenate is way too close to call. The only state no poll is showing an advantage for is Virginia. Both democrats and republicans need this state to retain control.

No. If the Republicans lose control of Congress it will be because everyone - Democrats and Republicans alike - will be tired of the rhetorical crap that Congress spews out. \n\nAlthough the President's poll ratings have been really down for a while, Congress's ratings haven't been much better. People are tired of the same old tired rhetoric that has been around since the 80's. It is time for a change. \n\nMost of the House and Senate is full of old baby boomer geezers who are all has beens. We need young blood in there and it is hard to find young people interested when state and local legislatures are the cesspools of corruption that Congress and Washington is. \n\nIt doesn't matter if you are a conservative, a liberal or what you are. All those labels are obsolete and worn out. Congress and the bureaucrats in Washington need to be knocked off at the knees because their ideas are worn out and stale.

Democrats will take over the House.\n\nRepublicans will keep control of the Senate, but not by legal means. Explanatory press releases have already been written explaining why results in some races were not as expected.

Pretty much, yes.  And don't assume a dem will be pres in 08.  The dems are still a mess and will need more than 2 years to produce someone that can beat a McCain.

At this point in really depends on the Democrats. If Democrats choose to honestly work for change for all Americans they will reach across the aisles to craft legislation which benefits all. If they do this the veto should not be an issue. However, if Democrats choose to go partisan and stick with a liberal agenda then yes the government will be hopelessly lost in gridlock for the next 2 years. As Mr. Bush will veto their legislation and they will not have the majority required to override.

regain majority in congress

The only thing I see changing is the president will have to compromise with the democratic congress in order to get anything done. Some would call that grid lock but I call it checks and balances.

Democrats are going to betray some one.  Will it be the New Democrats?\nOr will it be their commie welfare base?\nThis will be fun.\nBoth Iran and Al Qaeda say the Democrats owe them for helping them take over Congress.\nIllegals say the Democrats owe them.

The Republicans control Congress, and the Democrats are spineless.\n\nMaybe the Dems will grow some balls after they win back the Congress in November.

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

Sure.........how do you think the Democrats got back in control of Congress????

As long as the Democrats can make a decent decision for once in Congress; we wont quite, we wont surrender. Thats what America was built on. But hey, when Congress pulls us out and a couple of 9/11's come, it'l be all those Americans that voted Democrats fault, and them, and their families will suffer
