The Republicans are the majority party in the House of Representatives. The Democrats are the majority party in the Senate.
In the US, no one single party has a majority in the House, Senate AND White House. Currently the President and a slim majority of the Senate are Democrats, but Republicans hold a majority in the House.

On October 10, 2007: Senate majority floor leader is a Democrat; Senate minority floor leader is a Republican. This may or may not change in the near future. The answer depends on which party held the most seats after the last election; if any senators died in office and were replaced by their home state Governor - who may or may not be from the dead senator's political party; if a senator happens to switch political parties after election (which has hapened).
Senate Majority Leader. He is technically outranked by the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, who is traditionally the most senior member of the majority party in the Senate (and is third in the line of succession after the Vice President and the Speaker of the House). However, the Senate Majority Leader wields much more actual power.
