Full Version: Question?
Which party do you think will win control of the Senate and by how many seats?
I think the Republicans will regain control of the Senate by 2 seats.

I have a question for you, scully. Did you want only republicans to debate this (we're in the republican forum)? If you were looking to get everyone's opinions, Mike started a similar thread: 2002 Elections
Just thought I'd point that out. Since I'm not a republican, I'll reserve my opinion for elsewhere.

I think this one's just too close to call for me.
The Torricelli issue will certainly have an impact.
While I'd love to see the Republicans take the Senate back, I don't know how much it will matter.
Bush isn't a reformer. He's dropped the ball on social security reform, and he's allowed the Democrats to dictate the issues of the day.
Maybe with a Republican Senate would give him a bit more room to push the agenda.
But I still think it's too close for me to call.

Actually Jaime, I just picked one of the political forums to post my question. I would never post a question under someone else's thread. Then I would risk "hijacking" another member's thread. That would be poor message board etiquette, in my opinion.
However, you bring up an interesting point. I will pose the same question under the democratic and independent forums to keep things "fair and balanced".
Oops...I quoted the wrong response. I think everyone knows what I meant to do anyway.
Us by three seats in the Senate.
Im going to have to agree with Erick, us by 3. I just filled out my absentee ballot, I went to a pro-life site and voted all pro-life. The site is http://www.wevoteprolife.com/
Click on your state and see what candidates will support anti-abortion laws.

Too close to call. Probably the Dem's will hold if things follow history.
The reason I said us by three is b/c I htink that the people of this great country are finally going to be fed up with the Dems horribel abus of the law and people's intelligence.

hey! I hope it wasn't an absentee for NJ or Minn.
Democrates by 1. That is if they don't replace anyone else who is losing.
Guess we have the answer now! Great night for Republicans!
