Is it easier to believe that the US Govt allowed a suspected/expected terror attack to happen (I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they didn't expect the scale of 9/11) so they could justify war in Iraq or anywhere else or that the US Govt fabricated an attack to justify a war, like say, the Bay of Tonkin for example?

According to the electoral vote thing:
"Connecticut is not listed because it is simply a rerun of the primary with Republicans getting to vote this time. While ideologically interesting, it has no effect on control of the Senate since the two leading candidates are both Democrats..."
So the predictions of 51-49 Dems in the Senate are including Lieberman on the Dems side. This is contrary to our system which tends to put Independents & minor parties on the minority (opposition) side (well, in Britain where they have lots of parties they do). They look to be counting Bernie Sanders in Vermont a Dem as well. Looks more like 49-all with 2 Independents to me.
As for the quality of the Democrats, they *may* be a bunch of fuckwits, but the Republicans have *proved* themselves to be a bunch of fuckwits. And corrupt hypocrits to boot. Like any political team, the proof will be in how they carry themselves over the next two years.
