that would be a sweep that would include many members. democrats lose a lot of the seats that mccain carried. it was unlikely to win in the first place. they are more rural and more conservative. will this be a white person s election? all old people s election. . it will be a majority election. the newer younger people in 2008 will be nowhere to be seen. why? why won t they vote? the loyalty is to president obama. their excitement is for him. there is a fertile area for the president to do work. get young people to vote. democrats have a booming bus coalition because they need them to vote on presidential and non-presidential. even if the majority drops from 08 to 2010, it will be substantially larger.
