We'll be fine in 2008. Won't be surprised if we pull it out this November, too.

I saw Murtha's opponent on FOX News today, she's very together and bright. I have great confidence that we'll win in November. I would especially enjoy seeing Murtha lose considering he's merely grand standing by dishonoring our troops in order to win the post of majority leader if they take the house.
In the long term, the Democrat's coalition that made them a ruling party from the 30s to the 70s just isn't functioning anymore. The factory jobs are gone, farmers and southerners incidently don't like abortion or high taxes, and really don't want people to take away their guns. All they have left are minorities, and I think even they after a while will be up for grabs. Black are slowly but surely moving into the middle classes. They're mostly socially conservative also. Mexicans are the same way. So, even if they win in November (which I doubt since they have absolutely nothing to run on!), the Dems are in a long slow decline.
