When did democrats control congress?
From what I can find the Republican party controlled both houses of Congress from 2002 through 2006. In the 2006 elections, Democrats took a small majority of 51-49 in the senate and 233-202 in the House of Representatives which they held for the two years leading up to the 2008 election. Update:In the 1994 midterm elections Republicans regained control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives. The Republicans lost control of the Senate in 2001 by one vote due to Sanders of Vt switching to Independent caucusing with the Democrats. The Republicans regained control in 2003 maintaining a majority in both houses losing control only in the 2006 elections. Source:http://uspolitics.about.com/od/usgovernment/l/bl_party_division_2.htm During the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-45), the Democratic Party controlled both houses of Congress. The Republicans won control of both houses in the 1946 elections, only to lose them in 1948; with Dwight D. Eisenhower's election to the presidency in 1952, the Republicans again won both houses. However, after the Democratic Party again won back control in the elections of 1954, it was the majority party in both houses of Congress for most of the next 40 years; the Republicans were only able to win control of the Senate for a six-year period (1981-87). The Republicans won a majority position in both houses of Congress in the elections of 1994. The Republicans controlled both houses until 2006, except the Senate for most of 2001 and 2002, when the Democrats had the majority after Jim Jeffords left the Republican Party to become an independent and caucus with the Democrats. In 2006, the Democratic Party regained control of the House of Representatives, and the results of the Senate elections yielded a Senate makeup of 49 Republicans, 49 Democrats, and two independents. In the 110th Congress (2007-08), the Democratic voting bloc has a 51-49 majority in the Senate because the two independents, Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut and Bernie Sanders of Vermont, align themselves with the Democratic Party. -Source: www.wikipedia.org (US Congress)

When was there democratic Senate?
They took and house and senate just over two years a go and shortly after that started saying the economy was bad. Unemployment was at 4.9 them and the Dow was at a all time high so I didn't understand how they could say the economy is bad. After hearing the economy is bad for close to a year, I, like many people I know, decided to stop major purchases (middle of 08), hold on to my money and wait until after the election to see how the economy is doing. Glad we did.
What were the outcomes of the 2006 congressional elections?
The Republican Party lost control of both houses of Congress. In the Senate, the Republicans had a net loss of six seats, the Democrats had a net gain of five seats, and the Independents had a net gain of one seat. That put the Republicans and Democrats tied at 49 Senators apiece with two Independents. However, the Independents were caucusing with the Democrats, giving that party control despite the fact that the incumbent Vice President, the President of the Senate, was Republican. In the House of Representatives, the Republicans had a net loss of 27 seats, and the Democrats had a net gain of 30 seats. At the end of the 109th Congress, the Republican Party had a 229-203 majority in the House. At the beginning of the 110th Congress, the Democratic Party had a 233-202 majority in the House.
