Is there a problem with the Republicans knowing America is going to be Democratic again?

You will never stop their spouting off unintelligent questions and answers . They don't even leave their cushy computer jobs in their house to know what the economy and the real world is all about. I just say to them " Here's your Sign " !!!

As long as this is a capitalist country. controlled mainly by big business, we will be seen as opportunist's.But the Democrats do a much better job of disguising this.and wont more for the people , So Yes things will improve.with the Republicans not having so much power.I pray for my country. God Bless The United States Of America. May we be a beacon of light for freedom and justice in the world.and please. no more killing of innocents.

Impeachment, I seriously doubt the democrats are going to make that blunder. Maybe a new way of looking at things should be...if the republicans block everything the democrats do try to accomplish, will this hurt them even further next election? The democrats already have plans in the works. If America agrees with their proposals the republicans would be cutting their own throats by defeating the bills. Someone in the republican party needs to wake up and realize you guys are no longer in the cat-bird seat. The republicans are now the bad guys. Obstruction politics will not help their cause. A little bi-partisanship may help their cause.

Don't apologize. Politics has nothing to do with the real world. Every time the Democrats get clocked, there are a multitude of articles about the end of the party. And now we are hearing this is the end of the Republican party.\n\nHELLO! They are both wrong!\n\nWe won't get decent people in government until the American sheep wake up and realize the most important thing a politician has to do each day is work for his/her re-election. Everything else is a distant second.

Republicans will be very defensive and hurtful for the next six months or so...that's their track history during the run up to, during, and after a landslide defeat for them in elections. \n\nThe fact is that a huge majority of Americans said, by their vote, that Republicans are not only a minority of the American people, their thinking is well outside the mainstream of our society. \n\nRemember how nasty they were after Bill Clinton solidly won the presidency twice in a row? They got even nastier after GWB was awarded the presidency by the Supreme Court - trying to spin a nine-member election as the "will of the people". \n\nJust ignore the few Republicans out there who are trying to undermine our great America. Remember, their last committee (GWB and his posse) will be out for good in a couple of years, and then they'll all go away for many years to come.

It has been the GOP talking point since the last election. Remember when Bush challenged the Democrats to come up with a plan for winning the war? It's like someone tearing apart an expensive timepiece and then demanding that you immediately fix the problem he created. Maybe the better idea was to not break the timepiece in the first place, and certainly not to hire the same person to break even more!\nAnyway, the strategy of ignoring democratic ideas clearly works, and the media love to repeat the mantra that the democrats don't have any solutions. Even when the Democrats held a news conference recently to map out new policy, the news media covered it little, if at all, and continued to bemoan their lack of ideas.\nDemocrats just need to insist that their ideas be heard, and continue to false statements.

I'm a Republican, but I still don't think that the Dems are capable of making matters any worse over there than they already are.\n\nBesides, if the American people make it known to the Dems through polls, protests, lobbying, etc. that they don't want to cut and run from Iraq, even the stubborn Dems may end up changing their minds on the issue.

"Will it be a landslide to the Democrats to teach the Republicans a lesson?"\n\nI SURELY HOPE SO!!!

Right now the republicans are using scare tactics to try and hold their position.\n" If Democrats take over, they will withdraw from the war and make every American citizen a target or terror!!!"\nGive me a break.\nRegardless the political agenda, Americans will vote by what they want from the government, not what the government wants from them, even though it may not make a difference.\nJust watch what happens, and maybe you will agree it is time to change ALL of government, not just the persons in it.

I think we are voting for Do No Harm.  Once the Republicans loose power it will be harder for them to foul things up.  We will still have to fix the messes we have.

Probably not, because the two parties are of opposite beliefs as to how the country should be run.  Things will settle down a little, and the barbs will be more subtle.  Remember, the Presidential election is next, and it will start up about a year before the election.

America is currently facing many problems, however a drastic decline in it's power is doubtful.  According to most rankings that take into account all aspects of a nation, The usa is by far the most powerful, and is more powerful than the second and third most powerful countries combined.  However, if our country continues on its current trend yes there will be problems.  Our currency is depreciating, and the gap between rich and poor is growing under the current administration, and there is also talk of starting our third war in this regime.  The only reason why i think that America won't decline though is because the Republicans will have nobody else to blame after this term, and once they are voted out these problems will be addressed.  The republicans control everything now and have lost their scapegoat.  The only people they have to blame our themselves.

the rules are different because democrats are different than republicans, didnt you know?\na democrat can stand on his head and tell the rest of the world is upside down, and everyone else will believe it.  if a republican does the same, he gets sued for teling everybody else what he thinks should be right.\nwhen a democrat accuses a republican of voter fraud, being unfair to somebody or a group of people, cheaing on something, or anything of that nature, its really what the democrats are doing.  when a republican does the same thing, the democrats say its slander and hate speech.\ndemocrats are allowed to be different because they know better than everybody else, and republicans are just a bunch of sticks in the mud from states where there is no common sense.\nlast but not least, dont forget, 5000 years of human evolution doesnt mean anything now that the democrats are in power, or will be, next year.

True that. We're overdue for an Independent Party, or a Reform Party, or the Constitution Party. The DNC/GOP play us off on each other, or vainly try to, in hopes of duping us into 'voting' for more money for them and their ambitions. No accountability, and they've more or less worked together long enough to basically short out checks and balances. Right now, with the GOP in majority, they basically run things, so any griping should be more directed at the republicans, but save some for the dems too, wouldn't want em to feel left out! LOLOL\n\nI think the merit of the Independent Party concept is the idea of harkening back to the concept of independence, which sort of flies in the face of 'globalization', but we've seen how committed the politicians are to the public in the face of suitcases full of money. Iraq's a good example of that, mega-dollars for special interests in supporting the 'war effort', with zero public accountability. And, that's not all...these guys have a racket, and the only way to bust it up is to have an election, and impeachment hearings. That's where the voters come in, because at the end of the day, the worst corruption has been the collective ignorance and apathy of 'We, The People'. If you don't vote, don't read the issues, there's no way to have ANY clue about what might even be going on, or who's robbing the till the worst this week. Public accountability only comes when enough people decide to stand up together and say 'enough'. I'd say that the introduction of a new party, like the Independents, would do exactly that. FIRST, we fix america. THEN, help others.

I think that anyone that says dems have screwed up as much as Republicans needs to actually pay attention to what's happening...\n\nbut to answer your question... I'm not sure... there are a lot of Republican states out there that are going to vote for their republican Representative, even if the Representative is skull f*cking the decaying corpse of Jesus Christ himself on national tv... just saying...\n\nSo I think the dems are going to make progress... but it's tough to fight that kind of blind loyalty overall
