Will the 2006 election be about Iraq or the Democrats

We hear on all sides that the Democrats want to “nationalize” the 2006 Congressional elections.

Former NYC Mayor Ed Koch worries that the conflict in Iraq is going badly, and that the election will turn against President Bush because the American people believe that.

I think Da Mayor is wrong on this one. I believe the 2006 election will be about the Democrats’ shafting of the United States in a time of war – an unprecedented abandonment of our national interest by a major party in the aftermath of 9/11 – the biggest unprovoked attack on civilians in American history.

Look at the Democrats’ record:

1. John Kerry rose to media fame in the Vietnam War by smearing his Swiftboat buddies as reckless murderers. His entire chain of command rose up against him in the 2004 election, to tell it like it was. No sensible person can still believe that Kerry is a patriot – of any kind. The Democrats are the Kerry Party.

2. Al Gore is still red with rage – along with high blood pressure and a lot of added pounds – from the toss of the dice in the Florida election, six years ago. He was last heard of smearing his country’s honorable treatment of Muslims for the sheikhs in Dubai, while collecting a fat speaker’s fee. The Democrats are the Al Gore Party.

3. Senator Russ Feingold wants to run for President in 2008. He just made big headlines by introducing a censure motion against the President’s “wiretaping of Americans” – an idea so shot through with lies that even the Democrats ran away from it. Yes, you guessed it: The Democrats are the Feingold Party.

4. Hillary Clinton has been steering to starboard, to the point of outraging the Democrat Leftwingers like Maureen Dowd. She may well get the Democrat presidential nomination. But what is her greatest claim to fame? That she was the biggest wronged woman of the most successful Democrat administration in recent history. Bill Clinton did to Hillary exactly what all the Democrats are constantly doing to the United States. In more ways than one, the Democrats are the Betrayed Spouse Party.

The election will be about the Democrats' utter incompetence when it comes to national defense, including the ongoing war against Muslim Terrorism in the the Middle East. Plus it will be about the Democrats continuing to oppose tax burden reduction on the American Worker, and the Democrat Party's ongoing opposition to any reduction in the bloated social spending.

I stand by my earlier prophesy that the Democrats will lose additional seats in both the House and the Senate.

The war in Iraq is going remarkably well, in spite of all democrat acts to achieve a contrary result.

The democrats don't have any ideas anyway. Empty headed ninny comes to mind.

I think it will be over the war and here's why. Yes, the war isn't going badly BUT remember that most voters nowadays can't see past the letter "D" or "R" before a candidate's name, never mind where they stand on the issues.
We must also remember that the media, which does a good job in making the war look like a losing effort, is controlled by the left and has so often made the GOP look bad.
True, the Democrats are as incompetant as the day is long but I'm concerned with the media's portrayal of the war and the voter's idiocy, especially when it comes to the poisoned mind of the average college student.
