Democrats now control Congress

The Democrats now control both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Bush will have a harder time pushing his agenda now.

That's all well and good, but what has me concerned is if the Demo's take the White House in a couple of years too. We've already seen the effects of having one party in control of all three branches. We can ill afford a repeat with the opp end of the spectrum. We NEED to have balance - that means one party in control of X branch and another party in control of Y branch.

i think that one guy said it right when he said something to the effect of,"they were in there too long..any party in power too long gets fat and corrupt. it happened to the democrats before and now it has happened to the republicans"

something like that anyway

i voted democrat

i don't give a shit what happens next..i am just stoked at the results...

i think things will change for the better..and when we need some asses kicked, we can call on the republicans to take the wheel for a little while

They have been corrupt since 1913.

Bush can veto anything that comes across his desk that the new Democratic-controlled house tries to get through. That's the good news. For the next 2 years, don't expect a lot of changes.
