The Democrats have over 20 seats to defend in Nov. while the Repubs have only half that many. The Repubs should regain the majority in the Senate easily and 60 is not impossible. Many in the hierarchy of the Repub party are more concerned about the Congressional election than they are about the Presidency. They want Romney as the nominee because they feels like he will not drag down candidates in the other races. What idiocy...That's Rush's thinking.
If Obama wins in November, but we get to 60 in the Senate, perhaps they will have the spine to derail any of Obama's potential Supreme Court nominations.
If by chance the the GOP takes the WH, regains control of the Senate and maintains control of the house. I hope that they will stop playing "nice" with the other side and actually start governing in a more conservative fashion.
IIRC, the last time that the GOP had control of all 3 they compromised way too much.
I wasn't very politically active back then and may be mistaken.
