A new Republican Congress should message that they're tired of obsessing about Obama's mistakes. Everybody knows about those. The trick now is to focus on solutions. On change. On saying, "We can do this. We can fix this."

"Can" and "will" are two very different things.

The Republicans are going to recapture the Senate, picking up more seats than most any forecaster expects. And the House GOP is going to add to its majority.

I've always been an optimist. I would love to believe that Kudlow knows something that the rest of us don't. I really would.

I hate to be a constant skeptic, but won’t the majority only allow McConnell to bring bills to the floor? The Democrats can still block them, can’t they? If this is accurate, nothing will make it to Obama’s desk because every (conservative) bill McConnell brings to the floor will be met with cries of starving children, and throwing old people onto the street. McConnell will suck his empty head back into his shell and hide, instead of promoting a positive message. On the positive side, I think a Republican Senate would actually make it harder for Obama to use executive orders, because the Republicans could point to legislation blocked by the Democrats.
