Changing parties in the majority of Congress in the election of 2006 changed nothing in our government. Nor did it change America's ever dimming future. The reason is that the Democratic Party is held hostage to the same forces which caused the Republican Party to fail as the one party of majority. The truth is, though Republicans had the majority in government, they were not in control. Just as Democrats will not be in control, even IF they win the Presidency in '08 and acquire a filibuster proof majority in Congress.
