Because it is expected that Bush's government, which defined North Korea as part of an axis of evil, would look to deal with the issue of North Korea after Iraq. In this mid-term election, the Republican Party won majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. U.S. political commentators called the results a victory for President Bush. Republican gains in the Senate were especially considered to be the result of Bushs leadership. It is seen as a strong push for President Bushs national and international policies over the next two years. Political and social commentators believe that the issue of U.S. national security was the main reason for the election results. It is hard to anticipate how the relationship between the United States and North Korea will be affected by the election. However, it is expected that the Bush Administration will continue to pressure North Korea, straining relations. There is a possibility of strain leading to conflict rather than conversation and negotiation. Considering the Congressional suspicion of North Korea's nuclear development, experts suggest a strong possibility the new lawmakers will make American policy more strict. Thus, in this situation, South Korea's role in resolving the North Korea nuclear weapon problem is increasingly important. South Korea should lead the way in convincing North Korea to give up nuclear weapons and accomplish its purpose peacefully. However, this job is for the newly composed government, rather than the out-going government. Besides, the present Korean government better not burden the next government, to accomplish a good transition. The most important thing is to send the right signal to North Korea. Most of all, the plan to proceed with the attack on Iraq and the war against terrorism is not going to meet much opposition. The Democratic party, which lost this election, will be hard pressed to oppose President Bush's national security policy. The American people affirmed their support for his policy by voting Republican in this mid-term election.
