It’s always darkest before the dawn.

Going forward there are going to be two kinds of Democrats: the kind that slavishly stick with Obama no matter what, and the ones that are more pragmatic and willing to move right to forestall more GOP victories in 2016.

The one big thing that the GOP controlled House AND Senate should be doing over the next two years is jamming a crowbar between the divisions that will inevitably arise, and move it around aggressively.

NOICE!

aawwwww NOICE!!!!

There will be a fight within the GOP in the Senate. The real conservatives will be flexing their muscles with some new blood and can make life hell for the GOPe. McConnell will have to cut some deals with the Dems to overcome the conservative bloc, but that bloc has been blostered and will be in the media daily asserting conservative principles with new authority.

Can you say Cruz/Ernst 2016? I knew you could.

Why such a condescending ending to an otherwise excellent post?

(Throws myself in between the two fighting patrons)

ALright you two, TAKE it outside.

IMHO, the “Mombassa Mother F**ker”(thank for that one, KennyBunk) is going to be seen as far too great a liability to America for the Democrats not to vote to impeachment of the ‘Muslim in the White Mosque’.

Biden is nutty, but not Muslim and has fewer predispositions towards treason.

It was a Mr. Rogers mimic. :)

LOL :) and thanks...

Too many red pepper flakes on your sesame chicken.

You just managed to put voice to an impossible condition. :)

Thanks for a great article.

I do want us to enjoy the sun, but the hurricane IS coming.

Yep.

**Obama is really an amalgamation of every Roman tyrant. **

He hasn’t gotten to Nero yet, killing all Christians at will.

I like us as friends way better than when we were squabbling.

[Alamo-Girl]

Indeed. Thank you so much for your insights, dear Laz!

[Slings and Arrows]

He’s the archetypical Internet Tough Guy.

[Resettozero]

That ought to do it.

[Vendome]

Carter must be rolling in his formaldehyde. ..

**3.Obama will shove Obamacare’s worst provisions down our throats now.**

Can’t both houses of Congress say “no” to such actions by not approving them?

Or are you talking about executive privilege, which Obama continues to abuse?

[Slings and Arrows]

*chuckle* Can't link to Key and Peele without mentioning this one.

[Slyfox]

He hasn’t gotten to Nero yet, killing all Christians at will.

But his will is right up there. He went to Washington with only one political claim to fame and that was his overwhelming support for infanticide, killing babies who had escaped the abortion attempt.

The only thing I’d add to your cogent analysis is the following:

The R’s were sober. They weren’t wild. They didn’t promise anything. They still haven’t.

What I’d like to see them do:

1. Put a bill on the President’s desk every week. The more absurdly reasonable and good for middle class folks, the better.
2. Do not bring up immigration reform - at all. Don’t do it.
