ABSTRACT
The article discusses the likelihood that the U.S. government will have a Republican Senate in the year 2010. National newspapers like the "New York Times" and "The Washington Post" predict that Republicans will dominate the 2010 Senate based on a number of events such as retirement of Senate Democrats, the national polls and individual states survey revealing preference for Republican senators, and the growing unpopularity of U.S. President Obama's legislative proposals.
