Win or Lose — Dems Lose

 
It is a cruel twist of fate that the Democrats ended up winning control of the Senate by one senator in 2006, and that senator turns out to be Joe Lieberman.  It would have been much better for the Democrats if the Republicans had stayed in the majority in the Senate.  The House could have shipped all kinds of legislation to the Senate where it would not have been passed, but the blame would then have fallen squarely on the Republicans.  As it is, the simple-minded public now blames Congress, which has fallen to an approval rating of 23-percent — six points below Bush.
