Sadly, the only reason the Democrats won is because they ran on the platform "We're not the Republicans". Voters could have thrown their vote away and voted for a third party candidiate...but don't blame me. I voted for Kodos.
The Democrats don't necessarily have a plan or anything, but hopefully they'll develop one in the next two years. I'm hopeful that this Illionois senator Barack Obama will lead the charge from the left in '08.
