The democrats haven't changed in the last 30 years.

The republicans have changed in the last 10 in that they are spending more like democrats. Its the heart of why they will lose in November, but won't get much of a blink from the press, much like the press wanted to claim that 2004 was about 'morals' instead of security.

When the democrats had control of the house for 40 years, do you think that MAYBE there were restrictive rules in place? Hmmmmm?

To assume things will be different if the dems take over again is insanity. They have shown no signs they want to work with anyone, its going to be about making the republicans look worse for 2008. In fact the ONLY real attempt was Bush in 2000-2001 when he tried to work with the democrats Texas style but that was just called naive and perhaps it was. He just got stabbed in the back repeatedly until September 11.

The democrats are not running on issues, they are running on not being republicans and that had not worked for them in 12 years. It may work for them now, but even that was slipping until the Foley October surprise.

Any democrat who even attempts to work with Republicans is demonized, of course one of them has a good shot of being an independent senator.
