Disapproval of Congress works against Dems in ‘08
Ironically, the Democrats’ major Congressional electoral victory in 2006 may work to their disadvantage in 2008. It’s virtually impossible that Republicans will narrow their deficit in Congress in the November elections, but Democrats’ plans to all-but sweep the contest will almost certainly be complicated by public dissatisfaction as evidenced in the AP-Ipsos poll.

If McCain wants a chance at winning in November, he must immediately and forcefully reject the Bush doctrine. Step one is to denounce the war in Iraq as the terrible and failed idea he’s known it was since 2003. A 71-year-old candidate will not be able to win if he cannot convince voters that he’s capable of fresh-thinking.
