There is an opportunity for the Democrats to make huge gains in 2006 - but only if they realize the issues that are outraging the American public and capitalising on them.

The two most important issues that strike me are:

Illegal immigration. With reports of the Mexican military making incursions onto US soil for no other purpose then to smuggle drug, its evident there is a serious serious problem along the Mexican border. The national guard shoudl immediately be activatedand deployed to the border. I don't even know if its feasable given the condition of the military but it should be. This will tie into the failure of the Bush administration to protect America. Why would a terrorist call America when they can walk right in???

Outsourcing: With Ford being the latest automaker to almost bite the bullet link,
its evident that little or nothing is being done to protect American jobs. In fact, it is well known that the government gives tax breaks to companies who do outsource.

If I haven't given the Democrats enough firepower to win back seats in 06 then they don't deserve to be a party. With the country going into the gutter farther and farther each year its like a gift waiting to be opened.

Damn I'm good.
