2006 A Nationalized Midterm Election or Not?

[Blank Slate]

I am interested what other people on this site feel about this question about the 2006 midterm elections for Congress (the House and Senate).

I notice that me and another poster, have a difference of opinion (an interestingly enough I consider myself a Democrat and they considers themselves a Republican).   What makes that last statement interesting is this:   As a Democrat I think I would love for the 2006 elections turn into a Nationalized referendum election (similiar to 1994 and 1946 for the Republicans or 1974 and 1982 for the Democrats) but I'm unsure that will be the case and actually highly doubtful that it will be the case (despite the results of the November 8, 2005 elections), but that other poster (from New Jersey) thinks it will turn into a Nationalized referendum election (although I get the feeling that they consider it will benefit Republicans if it is a Nationalized referendum election).

So what is your opinion on that debate, and feel free discuss, especially the thought of how it would or would not benefit either party for a Nationalized referendum election to occur in 2006, and even how many seats will change hands or pickups for one party or another will occur.

Ask me in either June or July of next year.

Yeah, that is too easy.  Although, I did write in my creating the poll that it will remain up just past the November 7, 2006 election day.
