Will the Democrats fumble this next two Years?

It's a tossup.  As a loyal Democrat, I fear that the left wing loonies, wanting Al Sharpton's blessings, will embark on some politically suicidal path.  Or try to pull the troops out now.  They have to find some common ground with Bush.  Bush, for his part, needs to reach out to them.  I see neither event happening.\n\nHey, maybe they will surprise us.  But I think not...

I agree with the answerer that said Medicare is screwed up. My dad has been on it for years. He can't do the paperwork. I guess all the ills in the World are the Dems fault. (Sarcasm alert) The Reps will get the pharmaceutical industry's full support. I'm not a fan of the Dems, but the US has to vote for someone better in '08. I'm thinking brother Jeb will run then. In 2000, after King Shrubby II was given the election, I predicted he'd win reelection and Jeb would run and win in '08 and get reelection in '12. I won't underestimate the stupidity of the American voter like I did in 2000. I thought they were smarter than to vote for a second Bush mistake. I'd bet money that Jeb will run and win. I certainly hope I'm wrong.

Most likely not, while the democrats will not support the funding of Pakistan directly, the President has vast powers that will enable him to fund any promises he made to Pakistan. However, he is in for only two more years, and as the election shows, his party is not in favor now, so it will not be surprising to see a Democrat be elected President in two years. Right now it looks Hillery Clinton will be elected and if so you can bet Bill Clinton will be in there effecting her decisions.

Even if they lose they will still be in Washington. They will just be in the minority. Truthfully both parties will move out of Washington. It is never to early for politicians to start campaigning for 2008. They don't really work any more they just run for office take vacations and vote to give themselves a raise. And that is bipartisan.

they better not be, or the democrats who won yesterday will find themselves and their buddies out COME NEXT ELECTION.\n\nThe People are finally speaking. \n\nRepresent us, or you are out.

I sure hope so.\nThe "Nader Effect" has foiled the Dems run at the White House for two elections now. When are they going to learn that when they isolate the far left to centrist factions of their party....those folks always rebel and vote Green or Indy. If the Dems ever got the BALZZ to come back to their roots as a party....they wouldn't have to contend with the "Nader Effect".\nThe best Dems to do this in 2008 in my opinion are Bill Richardson- Gov of NM, or Mike Gravel- former Sen from AK.\nCheck em out!!!

No, I don't believe they can. \n\nThey don't have time, they're too busy yelling that the Democrats "have no plan".

Impeachment, I seriously doubt the democrats are going to make that blunder. Maybe a new way of looking at things should be...if the republicans block everything the democrats do try to accomplish, will this hurt them even further next election? The democrats already have plans in the works. If America agrees with their proposals the republicans would be cutting their own throats by defeating the bills. Someone in the republican party needs to wake up and realize you guys are no longer in the cat-bird seat. The republicans are now the bad guys. Obstruction politics will not help their cause. A little bi-partisanship may help their cause.

Interesting isn't it. If that ever sinks in it should give the Democrats a moment of pause.

It really doesn't matter because nothing is going to get accomplished over the next 2 years. Anything Bush sends to Congress will get voted down. Anything Congress sends Bush will get vetoed, and they don't have enough of a majority to override, thus we have a stalemate for the next 2 years.......

Only if the democrats win.

I think the Reps can take a loss better.  Especially amongst us older folk that remember the Dems had Congress for 20 years prior to the 1994 turn over.

NO, but let's hope the GOP gets the clue by 08

It does take two to tango. But I am going to be very pissed at Democrats (I am one) if they pull this stunt. They have talked one way for years, and now appear poised to do the opposite? -- Or is it just another 1) GOP fear and smear job against Democrats, prompted by their recent congressional upset or 2) another historic repeat of a scenario we know so well: GOP messes things up, paints the country into a corner, then leaves the Democrats to clean up their mess?\n\nI need more information.

They will find SOME excuse for bad Democratic behavior.  I could not even stomach the liberals during the Clinton years.  NO ONE said boo to ANY of his actions.  Perverts stick together, and I guess they are no better...

I think the Dems are losing now and will continue to lose until they can come up with a way to define their party.  And until they can produce a good, strong, likable, trustworthy candidate.
