Why the Republicans will be swept out of office in November: Message 17086361 <Snip> The political results of the Republican base being very angry about investment losses and accounting fraud and the questionable standards used in the board rooms, among auditors, poor services by security firms, bond rating services, general corruption on wall street, leaving investors exposed and feeling they have been done in by Washington's bribes and shakedowns, these passions will backfire on Republican candidates with a history of pro-business, deregulation, free market, big corporations, this classical Republican ideology is now becoming far less popular. There will be defections as in California and New England of their middle class base, loss of enthusiasm for supporting Republicans in Florida and the middle west, and serious losses in the off year elections - most likely the loss of the house of Representatives and loss in the Senate and among Governors. Even if there is a war it may not help all that much. <End Snip>
