It will depend a lot on who wins the next presidency. If a democrat wins, more than likely a lot of bills will be passed but if a republican wins in 2008, there will probably be a lot of stalemate and a lot of the use of line item veto or just veto power.\n\nPersonally I hope that foreign affairs will take a positive turn. With all of the turmoil in the middle east I hope the next president will be strong in foreign affairs and help build confidence back in the US, our allies and the UN.  \n\nThe economy I think has been terrible with this last presidency but I do feel it cannot all be blamed on the president or the republicans due to the fall of big corporations such as Enron, the stock market crashing, and 9/11.  I think it is very sad when college graduates are not able to find employment upon graduating. My husband and I both graduated within a year of each other and I luckily found a job, but my husband had to wait a year before he found his first professional job because the job market crashed. I laughed every time the president said the economy was good and jobs are up. If it is so good, then where are all these jobs? oh...in retail...where we do not qualify because we are over-educated....\n\n\nI feel if credit cards were not used in the US, we would be in a depression. In my hometown, bankruptcy and foreclosures are up 50%.  \n\nSomething needs to be done regardless if it is a democrat or republican president or democrat or republican controlled congress. I think a lot of people, especially young families are looking for a positive change.

I don't know about that, but I do know that the dems will now be forced to work WITH the president instead of just shooting off their mouths. Since they have the majority, if nothing gets done, it WILL be blamed on them. They can't simply obstruct any longer.

When the Democrats stop using the poor for their own political gains.

I'm starting to not trust anyone to represent America.  Certainly not the Democrats, though.  Except for a couple conservative Democrats.

Democrats cant deal with real issues. they have to revert to tactics such as the BIG LIE, distortions, smears, creating scandals, diversionary tactics , fear-mongering, class war-fare and history revision

I can tell you why democrats are blue now. Look back to 1980. Since then, the only democratic President happens to be a lying cheater. That sure would make me blue.

Liberals have done that to whites also, but not at the rate they have to blacks.  They preach that blacks are worthless and cannot do anything unless the Democrats/government is there to hold their hands.  I think the Dems are still holding a grudge against the end of their reign as slave holders.  They even lost their hold as sharecropper overlords, KKK members and Jim Crowe law writers.  Welfare was their last trick to destroy the black race.

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

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!!

*sigh* unfortunately it's most likely going to be more of the same old crap.  Just like the republicans were pretty much corrupted by all their power, the same will likely happen to the democrats.\n\nWell, that's assuming they're going to stay in power past the next election.  I guess we can all hope that we'll see some actual positive changes in the upcoming months.... but I'm not holding my breath.

This could be true.  And also if something goes horribly wrong it will now be blamed on the Democrats.

Look how the Clinton staff acted when they moved out of the White House - trashed it, stole stuff, and took the W's off of the typewriters. During the last Presidential election in my state the donkeys slashed tires of Republican vans.  Those guys are in jail now.\n\nThe Democrats are immature and destructive from top - down.
