Large Number of Democrats Expected to Defect Following Election

In Mid 2007, Speaker of the House Democrat Nancy Pelosi Announced New Defections in Her "War on The White House"

Image caption of the day was..."In a new sense of bipartisanship, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid unveiled their ongoing spotlight and forum in the Democratic Party's declared assault on the White House.

What ever the reason, many Democrats are expected to defect from their party and join either independents or the Republicans in a drastic effort to salvage what's left of their political career.

Most of those expected to make the move won't do so immediately following Tuesday's election results. Many have a great deal of strategizing to work out which will rely greatly on Tuesday's outcome and the fallout to follow. Some races are so close that many run-offs are a given, which will postpone some defections a good deal.
