Great point. Ginsberg and Stevens might retire. the only problem is the House is much tougher to get back. It only took us 40 years to get it back last time

The Dims' majority, even IF they take over, would be razor-thin. The libs would still be forced rely on Southern moderates to pass anything.

Pelosi & Co. would have 2 years to get exposed as the frauds that they are, & the House could easily swing right back to the GOP in 2008 (hopefully on the heels of a ticket such as Giuliani - George Allen).

The difference is even if the Democrats do regain control of Congress, it will be short-lived. Demographics are working against them and Bush will not be President forever. And the Democrats in power would have to define what they stand for and if they try to pass the radical Left's wish list, they will come against the twin reality of a GOP filibuster in the Senate and a presidential veto a the White House. So the situation is different from the 1950s when Republican House majorities were transient. Every one expected the Democrats to get back on top and stay there for a long time. (They did.) And the Democrats will have only a narrow Congressional majority should they win in November.
