2. Top issue in 2006 will be Democratic Obstructionsim
If the Democrats don't develop a new strategy for being a minority party in a Senate where the Republicans are approaching a supermajority.

5. I agree.
Our party needs to find a set of core issues and hammer them. Run off the immorality of the sugar content of Pepsi and how the Republicans support it if we have to.

3. For starters...
The ongoing war against "terrorism" in Iraq.

The war in Iran

The war in Afganistan

The war in North Korea

The devalued Dollar

The soup kitchen lines

The loss of jobs

More God in schools

The massive deficit

The all but gone middle class

GOP will still win because they will use gays and abortion as wedge issues.

4. I'm gonna guess
It'll be the war in Iraq or the war in Iran or the war in Korea.

But it could also be who can best protect us against another dirty nuke attack like the one that took out Atlanta.
