BECAUSE if we don't bring both , neither Hillary or Obama can get a darn thing done. The house and Senate is really more important that either Obama or Hillary, and if you don't realize that fact, take a political S.Course.

Edited on Wed Feb-27-08 12:33 PM by griffi94
i'll be voting for all the democrats down ticket and leaving the top of the ticket blank, or voting other.
imo the congressional majority is a lot more important than the presidency. i hope we can increase our majority and hold it for 8 years or more.

3. Exactly!! The sooner the primary is a done deal the sooner we move on
the Senate and House races! Everyone here (well, ok, it is GD:P) seems to forget about this. Even in the case where (god forbid) McCain wins we need to have a fillibuster proof Congress for the Dems!
