Le contrôle du Sénat en 2012? Le retour des républicains?


On parle beaucoup de la présidentielle dernièrement, mais que se passera-t-il si les républicains sont majoritaires dans les deux chambres? Un scénario possible selon le NY Times...

"With Democrats defending 23 seats to their 10, top Republicans believe they have a built-in advantage in their drive to pick up at least the four seats that would vault them into the majority even if President Obama wins a second term and Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. remains able to break Senate ties. And they calculate that their chances are enhanced because important races will be in relatively conservative states like Montana, Nebraska and North Dakota.

“With our encouragement, I do think people are focusing on the Senate and how that can be the place where we can pick up the most yardage in 2012,” said Senator John Cornyn of Texas, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee."
