The voters have made their decision. They have sent the signal to the Bush administration that they want a new course. They have clearly given Democrats control of the House and it is very likely that Democrats will have the absolute majority in the Senate. The voters want a change.

Among other things, this election shows that the president no longer has the support of the majority of the people in the U.S. on the war in Iraq. No president can wage a war without the support of the majority of he people. It is time for Bush to realize this and it seems he has.

The resignation of Donald Rumsfeld is the start of a new course. The election is already taking effect. Rumsfeld is the symbol of Bush’s failed policy in Iraq. Now Rumsfeld is gone.

The Democrats must use the momentum of this victory to bring about much needed changes. They should work together with Bush, but there is also need for many investigations. Thanks to the voters the Democrats are in the position to start correcting the mistakes and wrong doings of the Bush administration. It is now time for the Democrats to live up to the voter expectations.
