I wonder if people have thought about what it would mean if the Democrats gain control of Congress. Harry Reid would be Majority Leader of the Senate. He is something of a joke, who, based on his comments about Clarence Thomas's Supreme Court Opinions, like Chauncey Gardiner, doesn't read. But, he would probably be the best of the lot. Nancy Pelosi would be Speaker of the House, and would be third in the line of succession to the Presidency. That's a scary thought. But other leaders in the House would be a regular Rouge's Gallery. Alcie Hastings would be in charge of intelligence. He is a former Federal Judge who was impeached and kicked off the bench for accepting a bribe. (And Nancy Pelosi is hypocritical enough to call Republicans the "party of corruption.") John Dingle of Michigan would be in charge of something. He supports Hezbollah, and apparently other terrorists groups. (Of course, there are a lot of Muslims in his district.) And Ron Dellums and Ethel Waters of California would be in leadership positions. These people are opposed to capitalism and their elevation would be a great victory for our enemies. They would spend the next two years trying on a Quixotic quest to kick Bush out of office, so maybe not much would happen.
