I don't think the Republican's are even a national party, mostly a rural southern party...if history is any guide...the Democrates are likely to lose 20 or so seats in the house and 3-5 in the Senate....the fact is that 95% of incumbents are re elected if they choose to run. I remember Sam Rayburn (sp?) telling Landslide Lyndon Johnson that he had a job for life unless he was caught in bed with a live boy or a dead girl and even that low bar has been lowered. Looks to me that by 2012 Obama will have the economy smoking...the deficit will be in decline ....he will be out of Iraq and damn near out of Afpak...the guy is way to smart for his opponents...
