What will happen if Cons and Dems share the Senate, Cheney even more powerful?

leave it up to Cheney, that's reassuring.\n\nIran will be Invaded no matter what the outcome.

It will cause gridlock.  Which is BAD not good.  The Pres. has his hands tied now, I hope his daddy's people can pull it out for him.

No, Cheney running would guarantee a democrat being elected.

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.

While both sides are giddy, and rightfully so, the reality of the matter is starting to hit home with the Democrats.  In the house they have a few moderates and a cabal of conservatives who cannot be predicted to vote along party lines because to do so would mean having to answer in two years.  In the senate the margin is even narrower.

Dems will control the House, by about 5 seats.   Republicans the Senate by one or two seats.\n\nCheck my prediction on Wednesday.

You would probably explode at some point.\n\nThere would be a lot less democrats. lol

There wasnt, when it was 50/50 the Vice President's tie gave the Republicans the majority, but soon after that one of the Republican's switched parties and became an independent that voted with the democratic caucus giving the Dem's the majority.

Everbody suspects it, of course, but probably damfew could prove it, and a weak House, in bringing up charges of impeachment against the Evil Cheney cannot count on a Republican senate to toss Cheney out. (Same goes for Bush.)

There's nothing preventing it other than perhaps voter sentiment and that the electors of a state cannot vote for a president and VP who both live in their state. For this reason Cheney changed his residence to Wyoming. Two people from the same state could still be elected, however, if there were enough votes from the other 49 states.

The VP is a tiebreaker and since it is DeadEyeDick, a tie goes to the party in power.\n\nWith the Dems taking 51%, if it goes right down party lines, the Dems win (unless Liebermann shifts sides, then it goes back to the GOP)

The Vice President presides over the Senate and casts the deciding vote when a tie occurs.  So for now, Oil Companies will make the decisions when Republicans and Democrats can't compromise.

Yes, and here are some reasons, Nancy Pelosi, the biggest liberal in American Senate history could be house speaker, stem cell research could kill more babies and start cloning, and homosexuals could violate the sanctity of marriage.

That's exactly what will happen. The Dem's. love to keep people dependent.

It will be President Cheney or President Gingrich!

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

I was going to say that Traitor may be too strong of a word for this however, after thinking about it Ive changed my mind.  As a former Vice President one would hope he would have had a little more respect for America, the administration and our armed services.  In times of war the last thing we need is a former VP giving the enemy ammo to use against us or fanning the fire.  This could lead to added hostility and attacks on US troops.  If that is the case we have Al Gore to blame.
