>>>It will also be interesting to see how the GOP settles out. Do they continue to focus on the evangelical base? Do they move to the center?<<<

Here is something I noticed first in an advertisement. Then I found the web site. Play the little video. It has a defeated Pennsylvanian in it. I did my small part to defeat him.

realrepublicanmajority.org

I would like to see the far right dominate the Republican party.

>>>Do they decide they can't afford to let the Democratic Congress be successful?<<<

If I were a Republican, I would sit back and see if the Democrats self destruct in the first month or two of the 110th Congress. The Democrats have a lot of old guard that could go off the deep end quickly. On the other hand, maybe this old guard will use their political experience and control themselves.

>>>I haven't seen anyone mention it, but I'd like to see Congress get rid of the fast track authority for trade agreements.<<<

I see pros and cons but would tend to agree with you. What do you see as the pros and cons of the fast track process?

I know you are probably busy but I would appreciate it if you would do something for me. Here it is. Go to the White House web site. In the search function, type "weapons of mass destruction." When the search is completed, go back to the earliest year--that will be 2001. Then go forward and see when Saddam and weapons of mass destruction began to appear. If you choose to run the search, let me know what you find.
