JOHN JOHNSON

For those who believed that Republicans will be in the control for next 25 years after Georgie Bush won back in 2000.

Proud to accknowledged that Democrats retake the control of the House of Representative!

Senator races seem more hotter ever. So it is going to look like 49-2-49.

"The Balance of Power"

This ultimately have sent a crystal clear to the Republicans in many ways.

I truly hope that our belove brothers, Jim McDonald and Todd Johnson, are doing allright.

This is pretty funny, no comments from Todd or Jimbo on the loss, but if they had won they would have been crowing at the first opportunity.

Welcome to two years of having an even more lame duck president than he already was!

Who cares who's in control of Congress? They'll just mess things up until the next election. Or am I just being cynical?

Sorry, been busy, congratulations to all the Democrat collector's for your parties victory

Again, congratulations!

Love the shortsighted comments about taxes. No mention of the incredible deficit and ballooning spending for the Iraq quagmire which was brought about by the Republicans.
Let's see what Rick Santorum's son thinks about the American people:

Sorry Todd, but you are confusing current Republicans with traditional "Goldwater" Republicans. Traditional Republicans believed in limited government and fiscal responsibility. Current Republicans believe in expanded government, instrusion into our private lives, massive deficits and out of control spending. Who would have thought the Democrats would become the fiscally responsible party, but that is what has occurred. By the way, if taxes need to be raised to reduce deficit spending I have no problem with that. It is irresponsible to cut taxes and increase spending - and it is unprecedented in wartime.

I'd like one. If only you could spell then maybe I could move on to other things. Like registering for that peachy-keen forum of yours! I hear that it's the bomb!

This quote from Lou Dobbs on CNN sums up the results of the mid-term election:

"While the Democratic Party was the clear winner, I don't believe for even a moment that the Democrats' ideals prevailed over Republican ideals. Election Day was middle-class America's declaration of independence from a Republican-led administration and Congress that for six years has been telling working men and women and their families in this country to shut up, listen up and go to hell."

They haven't become the fiscally responsible party ... they haven't been in power for 12 years ... they are the party of fiscally responsible rhetoric .. time will tell if they are truly fiscally responsible ... BTW there are two ways to balance a budget ... democrats always think of raising taxes ... I believe in smaller government ... so we should cut expenditures .... not raise taxes .. this is concept that is foreign to most democrats.

BTW ... for all you democrats that think this means anything ... I have two concepts for you:

1. Veto

2. simple majority.


Now if the Blue Dog Democrats have any balls to stand up to the kooks on the left, which they don't then there might actually be some bipartisan action. But the blue dogs will chair nothing and so they will get no bills to the floor ... so in reality what is going to happen is that gridlock will occur and the status quo will continue ... the rematch will come in 2008.

Actually it's been the Republicans that have been fiscally irresponsible. The US debt to GDP ratio was declining until Reagan became president. During his terms in office this rate started to climb sharply and continued under Bush Sr. The debt stabilized under Clinton and actually started to decline in his last term. But Bush Jr reversed this trend and the debt to GDP ratio is now approaching 70%. This debt is caused by in part by cutting taxes without a corresponding decline in expenditures. This is a borrow and spend policy which is more devious than tax and spend policy because everything seems normal now, but the ****e hits the fan later when future tax payers are given the bill.

Arius, I'm surprised at your myopic views. It should be well known (especially by those who worship at the alter of John Maynard Keynes), that fiscal and monetary policy are counter cyclical tools used to stimulate and/or retard economic growth. The Reagan era deficits followed a decade of economic stagnation married with supply-push inflation. There is no doubt that Reagan's fiscal policies jump-started an economy that was circling in the bowl waiting to be flushed.

Likewise, Bush's tax cuts occurred under similar circumstances as the U.S. economy was slammed by the so-called "dot.com" bust followed by the 9/11 attacks. The fact that the economy began experiencing a meaningful recovery within 6 months of the attacks is a testament to the power of counter-cyclical fiscal policy. Fluctuations in the Debt/National Income ratio are normal.
