Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but doesn't this always happen in the mid term elections in the USA?

And yes, they ARE all the same. What was the joke at th alst elections... are you going to vote for the multi-millionaire from one of the USA's most influential families or are you voting for George Bush.

I disagree, it is NOT all the same. We're dealing with making decisions over important issues such as the ongoing and futile occupation in Iraq (and what kind of strategy must be implemented and whether or not it is time to pull out), the shoving of pro-life "morals" down our throats, an absolutely humongous budget deficit, environmental policy, Supreme Court judges, religion and its role in government, immigration, and many other issues. Last time I checked, Democrats and Republicans generally disagreed over ALL of these issues. Yes, the Democrats are pussies, yes, the two parties are essentially two evils, and yes, all of the candidates have no grasp of what really needs to be accomplished in government and are multi-millionaires who don't deserve to run and don't represent the general public, but all in all, it is still very important to have people in office who are willing to stand up for the issues I mentioned above, even when it comes to a simple tip of the scales in a midterm election and the gaining of both houses of Congress by the Democrats. I'm sure most of us here care about the aforementioned issues enough that we should all understand the importance of voting (or holding a distinct opinion) even if it is between the two same old dreary rotten parties.
