Making the party stronger goes beyond the personalities of the candidates and our gut reactions to them.
It goes way beyond the individual who will be in the Oval Office.
I think, if we play our cards right, we could have a congressional wave that could top '06 - which went well beyond most of our hopes.
And if we get a Dem in the Oval Office - Clinton, Obama, whatever, it will take away any excuse for some of the Democratic wimps and peelegs in Congress for not moving us forward.
You are absolutely correct, the potential for dramatic gains in the house and senate are real. We can pick up another 30 seats in the house. Heck we already picked up 3 and we hardly broke a sweat. And each day it seems like we discover another republican senate seat in play. I've lost count, it has to be 6 or 7 pickups at least, and some of those pickup seats are already firmly in our column. And we shouldn't forget that with a dem in the WH, we can stop the bleeding in the Supreme Court, and begin to reverse the conservative advantage that presently exists.
Yes, we have a lot to look forward too, and the only way we can let it slip away is to remain divided.
