And it is the wind of change. The Republican Party is in shambles. They have proven themselves unable to govern, despite their superior claims of leadership in foreign policy and handling of the economy. They have proven their words to be nothing but hot air. Their obvious dislike for government made it impossible for them to govern effectively. They have forfeited their rights as a legitimate political Party.

On the other hand, the Democrats will most likely reap the benefits of the Republican's downfall. Barack Obama will most likely be the first black President of the United States. Democrats will probably increase their margins in both the House and the Senate. Thank you George W Bush!

However, the winds of change are in the Democratic Party also. By default, they win the right to govern in the next election. But it is a temporary position for the Party. Democratic supporters are not happy with the present Democratic Party either. The Party is only getting a temporary reprieve from the voters.

If they do not change, their heads will be on the political chopping block also. Democrats are not happy with the leadership of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. They are very discouraged with their failure to stand up for the American people. Their patience has run out. They want change.

If they do not change, they will find themselves wandering in the wilderness by the next election. The depressed and disenchanted Democrats will be looking for another alternative. This is the last chance for this Democratic Party. If there are no results, and soon, there will be a Third Party movement. The base of that movement will be the present liberal and progressive base of the Democratic Party. Their well of support has run dry. Take heed.
