Democrats losing control in Washington?

The honeymoon may not just be over for Barack Obama, but for the Democratic party as a whole. Recent events and poll numbers have caused political experts to predict major losses for the Democrats in the 2010 Midterm Elections. Issues such as the economy and health care are diving people, especially in Washington D.C. So should the Democrats be concerned, and if the GOP wins big, how will this affect U.S. policy both at home and abroad? RT's Dina Gusovsky discusses the future of the party with Stuart Rothenberg of the Rothenberg Political Report.

I like RT. Dina is a good journalist, unlike the trash MSNBC, Fox, and CNN have.

How about this, kids? We stop pretending this two party system serves the people? Both parties are practically the same, both parties fail the American people. Let's make a promise to each other to never vote for a Democrat or Republican again. All they do is make government bigger, take away our rights, blow people up in Asia Minor, create huge national debts and suck up to special interests. Constant warfare, constant welfare, constant sucky government.

@iheartdd4eva Whats wrong with blowing people up in Aisa

Democrat can win. Voters are only trying to punish Democrat for not handling those blue dogs well. They should read voters' mind very early on before wash down the health care bill and not being tough enough on Wall St. for the voter population. If Democrat can handle rebuild community infrastructures properly, voters will change their mind. Remember, the population of low informed tea beggars will be died off.

Democrats are losing because promising "Change" causes everyone to assume you mean the kind of change that pays their mortgage. Now that people see Obama isn't going to get them a 75K union job and pay their mortgage, they're disillusioned. Next time elect someone who actually communicates his intentions.

@iheartdd4eva I love reading posts from PEOPLE WHO GET IT !! It get's old reading posts or trying to talk to those of the still brainwashed.............

I wonder what the true intent of these corporate muppets are. Obama said he'd end the war immediately, but then instead did the complete opposite and increased troops. We should kick out the whole greed inspired gang and put in independents.. until they're bought out as well.

The President has 3 years left in office. The Republicans have fought him from day 1. It will continue!

I intend to give hi the opportunity to fullfill his term and everyone else should wait to JUDGE his performance at THAT TIME.
