This Gov't was created to make it difficult for the controlling Party to get things enacted without total control of all branches of Gov't.

We have a veto proof Senate.

We have the White House.

In two years, we will have a good shot at regaining control of the House.

What many Freepers are always complaining about, why we can't get things done is actually what makes this nation great, it is very difficult to make radical changes in it.

I mean we have a cloture proof Senate.

They do not have the 60 votes to shut down our filibusters.

Too much doom! This is only one election cycle. The Dems do not have a clear mandate!

Thank you both for your replies (Re posts 65 and 68) One side will lose - this time it happens to be our side. And the pendulum will eventually swing back our way.
