5. If a "bunch"
is eight or more, the Democrats will be in a really good position.

2. There are so many on that list I'd love to see dumped.
Besides Norm Coleman, I'd especially love to see that piece of shit Saxby Chambliss lose. Unfortunately, I don't think it will happen.

3. Enough to publicly tell Lieberman to go fuck himself.

4. It's my fantasy that every single Democratic senator simultaneously moons Lieberman on November 5.

Love the dems, love Teddy, but I sure wouldn't want to see his butt.

6. Oodles of House seats, and enough Senate to tell the fuckwit Connecticut electorate to go to hell...
but not enough to consistently overcome filibuster, I don't think.

11. What's with the adieu about Holy Joe?
Baucus is even worse and nobody has a problem with him being a Democrat.

12. A variety of individually sufficient reasons. One is that nobody expects much from red state Dems.

13. Other crimes evidenced in the mis-directed georgewbush.org e-mails?? = HATCH ACT violations
Still no answer from Sen. Susan Collins regarding her staff breaking the law!!! I'm still WAITING!!!!

Why doesn't anyone call me back when I report crimes to the Bushies? :rofl:
