Most, in my openion will go with the Dem's for sure because they are tired and ready to come home to their waiting(scared for their lives) families. They have a better chance of coming home sooner especially since the GOP plans to keep them there past 2010. My money goes toward the Dem's, i think they will vote for them so they can come back to "HOME SWEET HOME"!!!

Of course it should be a democrat.  And unless things change very dramatically over the next two years, it's a fair bet it WILL be a democrat.   \n\nPeople are finally starting to catch on that the Iraq war was a bad idea, and Bush screwed up by starting it.  What I want to know is what took them so long.  Everything that opponents of the war have been saying from the start turned out to be true.  And most of it was obvious from the start to anyone who payed attention in 9th grade history.\n\nAnd then there's the Foley scandal.  Sexually harassing teenage boys doesn't go over too well with a constituent base that's big on family values.  And having so Republican congressmen helping to cover it up makes the whole party look bad.\n\nOf course, those are by no means the only Republican screw-ups, but they seemed to be the too biggest factors in Tuesday's Democratic victory.  When it comes down to it, in one of the senate races (I think it was Rode Island), the Republican incumbent was voted out essentially just because he was a Republican, despite being one of the more liberal Republicans in congress and having been fairly popular in his home state.  The Democrats took over the senate with just 1/3 of the seats up for reelection.  The presidental election is still two years away, so things can change, but right now it's quite clear that America does not want another Republican.

I am a Vietnam veteran and this month I voted for the first time as a registered Democrat. I used to be a Libertarian but no longer can I sit on the sidelines saying both parties are evil. \n\nThe resolution passed says that we have to "stay the course in Iraq" or all the US lives we have lost there will have died in vain. That is like a gambler saying "I have to keep putting down bets or all the money I have lost so far will be lost in vain." \n\nIn truth, it is the Republican congress saying that THEY don't want to be like Johnson and Nixon and get blamed for losing Iraq like the aforementioned Presidents got tagged for losing Vietnam. In both cases, the war is not winnable. We went into Iraq on cooked up intelligence. There were no weapons of mass destruction. None. Sadam had already used them on his own people. We sold him the gas. We saw when he used it. There was no uranium and the Republicans knew that. That is why they outed Valerie Plame.\n\nAnd get this, somebody, please: Iraq had nothing at all to do with 9-11. Nothing. The guys flying the planes were mostly Saudiis. OK? Despite the waving the bloody shirt about 9-11, Iraq had nothing to do with it. Oh, that is so criminal to do. It is truly like yelling fire in a crowded theater.\n\nWe or our kids or grandkids will look back on this era and shudder. I hope we can look back on this era. I hope the history of this era will be open and not sealed away.

Democrat.  I believe in their values more than the republicans.  Also, republicans just whine about everything.  Also, Bush is the dumbest person on the face of the universe.  You could fit his library in a little corner.

The real question is how many people will actually vote.  If Bush and the Republicans are as bad as I read here at Yahoo answers then we should soon have a Democratic president and all Democratic representatives and senators.

Politicians distorting the truth?  Unfortunately very common.\n\nDemocrats claim to support the troops yet are quick to try to invalidate their votes.\n\nClearly the Democrats know who the troops support.

It was Iraq.  However, I voted mainly for Republicans.  Saddam and Osama are happy that the Democrats won.  Doesn't that scare anyone?  It scares me.

Iraq-didnt the Dems vote for it too and proudly, especially Kerry.  This is a stupid question.  Is there a law to prevent a lying, soldier-bashing person from running from pres?  no.   Why would Dems want to impeach Bush?  Do like Cheney that much-ha.

Yes.  Kerry is the face of the Democratic Party.  Kerry hates the troops, like all Democrats do.  Only, Kerry slipped up and admitted it in public.

The same reasons why the Democrats joined the Republicans in voting to invade Iraq. Your lapse of memory is what will go into some book!

Republican, voted for him twice, but I should say I voted against Gore and Kerry more then I voted for GW.  I actually voted for McCain in the California primary in 2000 because I was never a GW fan....that said I still have no regrets.  To think for a moment Kerry or Gore could have done anything better is pretty darn silly.  Sure we could have "avoided" going to war in Iraq like BJ Clinton did for 8 years but eventually it was going to happen.  Once we kicked al queda out of Afghanistan where do you think they went?  By the way Al-Zakari (al queda leader) was in Iraq before we we're (read the NY Times - said so today).

The dems have a majority now, and its only dems who want a draft.... so you can thank all the idiotic masses that voted democrat who thought they were going to pull out of iraq, not draft everyone for it. The dems played you all like fiddles.\n\nYAK- with a draft, they will certainly cut re-enlistment bonuses and other benies. its a sure fire way to destroy the fighting effectiveness of the military, cut benies, and fill it with undesirable pukes who dont want to fight or would rather collaborate with the enemy like their liberal buddies did, anyone remember kerry?

Kerry's amendment (yes--it is an amendment to the proposed National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (S.2766)) will not pass the Senate. Most Republicans, and quite a few Democrats, see the scheduled withdrawal of troops from Iraq as an extremely strategically poor move. I'm no Bush fan, but it is undeniably true that a country on the brink of cival war needs our intervention. Perhaps we should not have gone into Iraq in the first place, but now that we are there, we must stay until the Iraqi government can generate its own political and economic stability and has developed appropriate security measures. We will be involved in the Middle East in some way or another for the next 50 years. Letting the Sunni's, Shi'ites and Kurds fight it out is not only dangerous for us, but is, to at least some extent, immoral. I'm shocked that more Democrats don't see the strategic danger of not playing a significant role in the development of Iraq. I am happy to see Senator Clinton, though, state publicly her feeling that a timetable for withdrawal is imprudent and dangerous.

I personally am a Republican. Bush had (I my opinion) a good idea of sending troops into Iraq because if we didnt get in there and restore at least a little bit of order they could plot even a more disastorist event than 9/11. Although he also has his faults to. If we could elect two presidents at the same time we would be democrat/republican country. Each time having two president from two different parties. Sort of like what the Romans did and they were pretty successful. But I am just a twelve year boy explaining my opinion.
