i was reading an interesting article in 'the Atlantic' a few minutes ago, which suggested that the Democrats controlling the house and senate might not be the best idea, election strategy wise. It suggested the party may fare better in the coming election if the Republicans were left there, continuing to do the outrageous and appalling stuff the Bush administration has become famous for. That way in two years, the American people won't think 'ahh the Republicans aren't so bad' because the Democrats have been in place to squash their lunacy, and instead will be ready to vote them the hell out of there. it was a good read.
