I imagine that with Republicans in control, they will spend less, but not much less. They will expand the power of the Federal system over the states a little slower. They will abuse the commerce clause just a bit less obviously. The EPA will be a smidgen less aggressive. Their will be more federal dollars available to put lots of useless and harassing police on the streets, and more teenagers than ever put in jail for smoking pot. Their will be more control exerted over local school districts by the Feds. With Republicans in office we can be sure that somehow the military will be neutered a little slower than the Democrats were planning to do it.

With Republicans in control the Income Tax will be made tolerable but never reformed. We can be sure that Federal workers will hide perks a little better than under Democrats. the War will be prosecuted with a little bit less incompetence. States will continue to fleece the citizens in the name of safety through Federal highway dollars, but the republicans just won't automate the process. They will at least keep a human touch on it. Under Republicans the 2nd Amendment will be honored with lots of NRA checks and balances, you know responsible tracking of who does what when, lots of permits made available if you care to apply.

Medicare taxes will continue to explode.
Social Security will be punted down the field.
The Navy will get smaller, but smaller slower than under the Democrats.

The Dollar will be diluted and ruined, but it will take a bit longer to finish the job.

The border will be sternly warned to stop mis- behaving.

Yup, I can't wait for the exciting Republican revolution.
