i am trying to give the other states -- virginia, where you have jim webb, and republicans have already started to talk to these democrats, and what is going to happen is there will be republican senators plus some democratic senators will give republicans operational control of the senate. you can think of spending issues, tax issues, many other issues, even health care issues, on which you will have 55 senators forming a majority, most of them republicans, and eight or nine been democrats. that is certainly something that i look to see, expected to see, and will not make kerry reid happy. >> already, there is a group of moderates in the senate, the faction that harry reid has already had to deal with. even last year, you had people like ben nelson running the show in the senate. things will come down to ben nelson because they needed that one vote, and just with that type margin. now with the senate, forget it. 46-54, whenever they have. you will see these coalitions building between the republicans and these moderate democrats, who are up for elections. everyone does not want to happ

mayor wellington webb and i were having coffee before he started running for mayor.aid that the thing when you sit down, you should tank of the worst secret in your life. think of the team and your mind that my god, i would never want any human being on the planet earth to know about me. and then imagine somebody asks you that question in front of a thousand people and you better be prepared to answer. that is the world that you're getting ready to get into. that was real, y'all. because he was sane when you're stepping in to be in the mayor a major city at this time, the mayor of america spends $2 billion a year. so god knows what micro is some and all the rest, but when you have that responsibility, there's a lot of interest are not consistent with yours. so if you're going to get in this space can be better be getting into it for the right reasons and you've got to decide that it's working. >> you know, i spent a good chunk of my career been frustrated by the people who are bright ahead of me, so i like it when opening the door, they're trying to hold us back, the

cycle as of today, and they obviously are worth watchin some of the names on that list include jim webb. >> ben nelson. >> jim nelson. >> nike luger. >> how would you like to be senator herb cole of wisconsin who watched russ feingold get taken down by a guy who was virtually not even a national figure or a state figure until he ran for reelection. i think the word that will permeate people's minds in congress is the word spooked. i think people are going to be so spooked by what happened, it's unpredictable, votes about the deficit, spending, votes about their colleagues. i think that's going to be interesting to see if that manifests itself in any way as far asotes are concerned. >> another group i'll watch is the members of the appropriations committee because, you know, it was the best committee and most powerful committee, and now it's more like a liability. you used to get on there, send the money home, and it's the ticket to reelection, and now it's a negative. it will be fun to watch to see if there's a change in culture at the appropriations committee. mr. john boehner said he

jim webb i would add to that who ran a strong campaign in the district that -- where there was no reason to elect a democrat. he made it a lot close. he ran a very strong campaign. >> one interesting point that we are pointing out, a preview before you rush off to read it later, the notion of the trifecta of senate seats, a symbolic senate seats the republicans thought that they could pick up. the illinois seat, held by president obama, once held, the delaware seat held by mike castle, and the nevada seat held by harry reid. the lesson from those three -- very different lessons. in illinois, but president obama do everything good in the place he was most popular but voters were so dissatisfied with government, a 65% of illinois voters told them they were dissatisfied with or angry with the federal government. it is almost impossible, know how it -- no matter how popular you are, to overcome that. take a look at the members of the illinois -- bill foster, debbie how orson come back even mullis had been could be looking for a new job. -- melissa bean could be looking for new jobs. there we

i am trying to give the other states -- virginia, where you have jim webb, and republicans have already started to talk to these democrats, and what is going to happen is there will be republican senators plus some democratic senators will give republicans operational control of the senate. you can think of spending issues, tax issues, many other issues, even health care issues, on which you will have 55 senators forming a majority, most of them republicans, and eight or nine been democrats. that is certainly something that i look to see, expected to see, and will not make kerry reid happy. >> already, there is a group of moderates in the senate, the faction that harry reid has already had to deal with. even last year, you had people like ben nelson running the show in the senate. things will come down to ben nelson because they needed that one vote, and just with that type margin. now with the senate, forget it. 46-54, whenever they have. you will see these coalitions building between the republicans and these moderate democrats, who are up for elections. everyone does not want to happ

from california, who has helped on this as well and senator alexander in the other body and senator webb, former marine, who has taken a great interest in this legislation. all of this in this work see things -- we see things that we think would be impossible, that somehow work out and we see the opposite of that we see some things that appear to be easy or simple that turns into nightmares or serious problems. this is something that i think almost everyone on both sides of the aisle when they've heard about it they've been supportive and helpful. it has been a difficult thing to reverse the technicality here and get worked out. this legislation has been adequately described by the three prior speakers. i will say that i also rise in support of h.r. 6397 and certainly this is a tragic situation where a young marine was killed in action in iraq one month after his marriage to this young woman from japan and then, of course, a little bit later the young woman gave birth to sergeant ferschke's child has been described. he was then killed in iraq, as mr. mcgovern mentioned, during combat on
