If on a national level, it looks like the Dems are the winners, many will vote for their perception of "the winner"!

That's why I agree with Howard Dean when he keeps blaming Shrub & the Pubs for all the problems. He's making it a national issue, and many voters will say, I'm not going to put the Pubs back in charge because they've made a mess!

My biggest fear is that, because it's a mid term election, lots of people just aren't going to bother to get off the damn couch, out the door, and to the polls!
