WaPo A01

where it belongs...
The GOP reign in the House that began with Newt Gingrich in a burst of vision and confrontation in 1994 came crashing down amid voter disaffection with congressional corruption. The collapse of one-party rule in Washington will transform Bush's final two years in office and challenge Democrats to make the leap from angry opposition to partners in power.

hanging this on a disaffection with congressional corruption is disingenuous in the extreme... was corruption a factor...? of course... but, as almost everyone has said, publicly and privately, this was a referendum on george... now that the truth of the bush agenda has started to sink in - unlimited power and unchecked greed - people are pissed, and rightly so, and it ain't just with the congress...
