If the Dems lose that Senate seat in Massachusetts...
..it'll just be a sneak peak of what will happen this November. Don't be surprised if the Republicans gain both the House and the Senate in 2010. Once that happens, NOTHING will be passed(like anything good is being passed now). It'll just be gridlock until 2012, when this stupid country votes Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck for President and Vice President.

2. The goppers won't get both houses in November.
They won't get Massachusetts, either.

5. I agree that it is a sneak peek, as you put it.
They were warned, and they ignored us.

Oh well....:shrug:

6. Even IF the Republicans win MA and Congress this year (unlikely), they could easily lose 2012.
Just ask Bill Clinton.

If she loses most Democratic Senators will shrink even further into their shell and will shift even more to the right/middle in fear. Fear of losing their gravy-train in their next election.

10. I believe you could be right about the sneak peek into November
but worry not, Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck will never head up this land.

The Republicans don't really want themselves a rogue president and a crying VP.
