But let's face the reality of our current situation. Other than card check, with RINO's like Specter, Snowe and Collins, Dems already have a de facto filibuster proof majority in the Senate and they don't need a single Republican vote in the House to pass whatever they want. With RINO votes they can claim an element of "bipartisanship" and cast part of the blame for their awful legislation on Republicans. Now they don't have that cover. They own this lock, stock and barrel and it will be a disaster.

They can only blame Bush for so long and assuming they continue to overreach (because they foolishly do not believe we are still a right of center country) it will eventually cause Americans to wake up and at least restore us to divided government. Don't get me wrong, I am not predicting Republicans will gain control of either the Senate or the House in the mid terms. In the Senate we have many more seats to defend. I do believe we will make more progress than we would otherwise if they didn't overreach.

As for my prediction, maybe its wishful thinking.......but it is plausible.
