What happens if Things Don't Improve?

Here is a difficult question to ask should this be the case. What if in four years, we are at about the same point as we are right now. A near filibuster proof senate, huge majority in the house, and now a president, seemingly would hit democrats hard wouldn't it?

I'm not so sure. Should the economy continue it's terrible run, they will continue to tout Bush as the reason for the misery. Many question weather that can work in four years. If the GOP nominates someone with little ties to the Bush administration, can they really mention George Bush every other word, as they did the previous election? Maybe not, but then again, it will resort to the "Republicans did this to you, we are just having a hard time cleaning up their mess."

Maybe that will work, maybe it won't. I think if things show much improvement, then Democrats are in great shape in 2008, but a weak economy may actually help Republicans. Hm...sounds impossible, but interesting thing to look at.

I see it being another election cycle or two before the GOP starts to rebound. Then again, you never know.
