A senior former White House official today predicted that the Republicans would suffer heavy losses in the midterm elections, despite polls showing a cut in the Democratic party's lead.

The former US deputy secretary of state Richard Armitage - a Republican who opposed the Iraq war - said his party would pay the price for presenting an "angry face" to the world after the September 11 attacks.

"We were showing a very snarly and angry face," Mr Armitage said. "I think it's understandable to a certain degree.

"But we're well past that now, and it's time to turn another face to the world, back to more traditional things such as the export of hope and opportunity."
