I think that it is going to take another loss for the GOP to figure what the hell went wrong. I think that the majority of Republicans politicians think the only reason they lost Congress is the Iraq war. I'll say the Iraq war did play a major role in the 2006 election, but it was not the only reason that they lost the majority.TeX METAFONT | March 21, 2007, 1:15pm | #
I'm a single issue voter:government spending
we have got to stop squandering our nation's wealth like drunken sailors on shore leave
traditionally, I figured that the republicans were the party to support to further an anti-spending platform
this isn't our fathers' Republican party
they act (and spend) like liberal Democrats with fangs
