Bartlett is naive and stupid.
A Democrat House will refuse to fund the Iraq war (which is what they did in the 70's - refused to fund the Vietnam war) and we'll hav to leave.
Our military men and women will have died in VAIN over there. For nothing.
And the jihadists will laugh and call us cowards. This is what the Democrats will do to us.
And what country will ever trust our word again.
If the Dems win today, expect the drive-by media to start screaming for "bipartisanship" tomorrow, a word they haven't uttered during six years of Democrat obstructionism. All we've heard from them is that it is time for a change, but if the Dems control D.C., you won't hear a word about change for the next forty years. The msm is disgusting.
What to expect after the election you ask?
1. Reintroduction of the Assult Weapons Ban, but this time all semi-autos and anything that can have a scope attached will also be banned. Basically destroying the 2nd Amendment.
2. Repeal of the Bush tax cuts and reintroduction of the Death Tax in full force.
3. 24/7 Congressional Committee investigations of the presidents "reasons" for going to war in Iraq.
All this WILL be passed because all these new laws will be tied to funding of the WOT and Bush will be forced to sign anything the dems want. The media was on Clinton's side when he faced a Repub. congress, its visa-versa time and Bush will be pounded and beaten by the time Jan. 2009 comes around and the media will have made him 2nd to Hitler the most hated person in world history.
Thats what going to happen, and we can blame it all on the F'ing P-whipped Repubs. in congress who were given a great chance to get things done for 6 years and BLEW IT!!!!
OUR President Bush? Is this guy nuts?
Were it only a possibility, I would not be sitting on pins and needles waiting anxiously for the (possibility of) other shoe to drop and we losing at least, the House.
As much as I like W (and voted for him twice) he is FAR from being a "Conservative" and is way to "Condescending" towards, and "Cooperative" with the Dhmimis (not to mention being way to PC for my taste) for me to even begin to imagine such a scenario.
PLUS, if we lose the House, we WILL have "Shamnesty" and W will push his Immigration Plan which will be a disaster.
VOTE REPUBLICAN. VOTER EARLY. AND VOTE OFTEN. LOL
That would be a silver lining. But I hope we don't have to deal with the cloud in the first place.
Longer fingernails.
Lose Iraq
Lose the WH
Lose confidence
Economic/political malaise

Just why does Mr. Bartlett believe that Republicans will act on these possibilities? Their history is one of going along to get along. A close House or ZSenate may well be dffectively majority Demorat when it comes to voting because in a close situation Republican RINOS revel in being the power fulcrum and vote with the Democrats or intimidate the Republicans into dropping legislation or going along with Democrat bills.
