Look at how cynical this is. They are saying it would be better for Republicans to win IN THE HOPE THEY WILL FAIL THE NEXT TWO YEARS! They aren't even bothering to argue there ideas are better.

The tide turns... The Democrats are damned if they do and damned if they don't ... hahahhaha.... I agree... If they do win in NOV... GRIDLOCK... every conservative would be wise to make them look like they act with no PLAN... plus they will mount senseless censure and impeachment attacks against the White House.... then they will look stupid and lose in 08... If they don't win in NOV... The Conservatives will mount a come back before 08 because... the war will be long over troops home peace in middle east low gas prices booming economy no attacks... hmmm they lose....

This is their worst fear...and even their buds in the MSM can't help them...

You have it 100% correct. They've been staring with glee at the presidential approval polls and recently got a lot of bad news about polls that relate to actual races.

" Democrats need a net gain of 6 seats in the Senate, and 15 seats in the House."

We pick up 4,5, or 6 seats in the House and 1 or 2 in the Senate.

Gridlocked congress is a good thing. It means they aren't busy making up new reasons to tax us.

Marxist/Leninists like for things to get so bad that the mass proletariat will rise up in revolution and create the workers' paradise (at last)....They loathe socialists who only prolong the revolution's occurring...

The Rats hate Bush more than they want to govern. Its an idee fixe with them. No one's heard what they want to do when they get into power other than to impeach Bush.

Implicit in the premise of the article is the proposition that the 'rats have no ideas about handling these problems.

You're correct, which will drive FR's perpetual doom&gloomers out of their minds.
