The Occasional Observer

Interesting article here, explaining why a loss may be good for Republican party (at least longer term). Another possible benefit is '08 presidential elections - regardless of who wins Congress in '06, I doubt any meaningful legislation will pass between now and '08. If that's the case and the public gets even more disillusion with Congress, and Congress stays Republican, there is a chance that we lose presidential election on that basis.

Just trying to find whatever silver lining there might be, longer term.
