G.O.P. Glum as It Struggles to Hold Congress

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 — The battle for Congress rolled into a climactic final weekend with Republican Party leaders saying the best outcome they could foresee was losing 12 seats in the House, but they were increasingly steeling themselves to the loss of at least 15 and therefore control of the House for the first time in 12 years.

Any Dem legislation that gets out of the House will still be voted down in the Reupg Senate, or vetoed by head through his proxy dubya, "just because he can" and as a brute show of power of the unchecked Exec to check Congress.

Anxious GOP Focuses on Not Losing Senate

Tight Races in Va., Mo. and Tenn. Seen as Crucial;

House Outlook Remains Grim

Republicans entered the campaign's final weekend yesterday desperately trying to keep control of the Senate, with three or four tossup races likely to determine whether the GOP can cling to power there even as it sees its hold on the House eroding.

Strong public opposition to the Iraq war continues to hurt Republicans in many key races, but the Bush administration struck a defiant tone, signaling that the election results will not influence its strategy. Tuesday's balloting might influence Congress, Vice President Cheney said in an interview with ABC News, "but the president's made clear what his objective is. It's victory in Iraq. And it's full speed ahead on that basis. And that's exactly what we're going to do."

As expected, even if the Dems win both houses, the WH will continue its losing "strategy" of .... lose Iraq. No surprise there.

As I do ented yesterday, the reconstruction profiteers have failed toreconstrc and are pulling out of Iraq, with no more reconstruction funds available.

Iraq is lost, now we have to figure out toe secure Israel with radical Muslim states in place from Israel's border all the way to Indian border.

You're doing a heckuva job, dubya
