Speculation About Selecting The Next Congress
By Paul M. Weyrich
October 17, 2005

Washington is abuzz with rumors and projections that the Democrats are heading back to power. Polls show that when a generic ballot is offered, Democrats outperform Republicans by 11 percentage points. A generic ballot simply asks, "If the elections were held today which party would you like to see control Congress?" The national polls don't ask about the individual representative in Congress from the district of the voter polled. Often voters, while expressing support for Democrats, will tell pollsters their own congressman is okay even though he may be a Republican. Yet it can't be comforting to Republican congressional leaders when they observe the current political situation. After 12 years in the House and 10-plus in the Senate voters seem ready to switch party control. A prominent House GOP leader told me, "I am glad the elections are a year from now." It is true that Republicans have a chance to recover by the November 2006 elections. Will they?

The 2006 election will be the so-called sixth-year itch election. Parties in the White House for six of eight years typically get clobbered in the sixth year congressional elections. Unless Republicans defy history this next election for them will not likely be pretty.

This is what they are saying to each other. Interesting. It also seems the every time they do something in the way of legislation it makes things worse.

1. And what do the Puggies propose?

removing more middle class tax exemptions like on mortgages.

Eternal tax breaks for Paris Hilton...

Would the last Republican in Congress turn off the spin machine?
Thanks.
