FLASHPOINT for Aug 04, 2006

So how confident is Sen. John Ensign that the Republicans will control the Senate, thus preventing his colleague, Harry Reid, from becoming majority leader? Ensign was asked the question this week by C-SPAN: "It's certainly not a good political environment for the Republicans, and there's a lot of reasons for that. But there's a long time between now and November so we're hoping - as a Republican - I hope that things turn around for us. There are a lot of competitive Senate seats out there. Every time somebody makes a prediction in politics, and you go to Election Day and you look back, you realize that almost everybody who made predictions was wrong." There's a ringing endorsement for the party in power.
