Republicans aren't "back,"  Democrats are "out."  There's a difference.  Obviously as the only other major party Republicans stand to gain quite a bit from Democratic misfortunes.  However, the Republican "resurgence" will be short lived.  Even if they retake Congress, any attempts to deliver on the "Tea Party agenda" and the inevitable failure of these attempts will send them further into the hole come 2012.  Republicans are still running on the Reagan coalition + 1994!  They need a new message if they want to hold onto power.  If you strip away the politics and propaganda, Democratic ideas are more popular than Republican ideas.  The Democrats have just done a piss-poor job of standing up for themselves as usual.

This sounds about right.  Instead of running to the center, the GOP has gone batsh**t even worse than Bush.  Sure they will pickup seats despite that this year, but it won't be as bad as 1994.  I could actually see the GOP nominating Palin(POTUS)/Quayle's son or Steele/Jindal (VP) giving the Democrats even more states this time than in 2008.  Bush actually had his head out of his ass with Hispanic voters.  This GOP wants to isolate them and they will pay in the end for it.
