3. You have to give Howard Dean credit for being right on this one!
Howard Dean has proven himself IMHO to be an able strategist and has created a foundation in each state upon which Democrats can run and WIN. When the Dems wipe out the Repubs in Nov 2008 across the country, I hope people remember Dean's contribution --and how he had to fight tooth and nail against the traditional Democratic Party thinking to implement them.

Good job Mr. Dean!

4. Republican Members of Congress Finally Realize They Will Reap What They Sowed....
All that talk about a 'perpetual Repub majority' has disappeared.

They now realize that they face quite a bit of payback for the outrageous treatment of Democrats they inflicted as the majority. They can read the polls and know what is coming.

I read where the WHite House invited Repub members of Congress to come over for a 'pep rally', and that the attitude was one of 'depression.'
