Look at the past 7 years of republican government (which speaks a lot louder than anything I could possibly say) and look at the inaction (and actions when siding with the republicans on surveillance and the war in Iraq etc) of Pelosi, the House and Congress, and this is (supposedly) from a position of strength! In my opinion the only thing that will keep a republican out of office in 2009 is a landslide democratic (or 3rd party, [HAH]) win, And I mean LANDSLIDE.

But the devastating difference between the parties is that, so far anyway, Republicans are still free to campaign in Florida. The monumental mistake the Democrats made was leaving a big empty space for Republican candidates to fill. That’s been the planned punishment for the Republicans all along, Ron.
