The forgotten race(s)

With all of the focus on the Democratic and Republican primaries, people seemingly have forgotten that there are going to be a whole bunch of Senate seats (not to mention the entire House of Representatives) up for re-election in November as well, and the Democrats are looking to get a veto-proof majority of 60+ seats in the Senate: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB120243245312152389.html.

If Harry Reid (who declared the Surge a failure before it started and who opined that the Iraq War was lost--again before the Surge had even had a chance to show some progress) takes charge of a pliant, veto-proof Senate, it won't matter who the President is, because the Democrats will have control of both houses. That's a scary prospect..............
