Too late now? I've been loudly complaining for several years -- only to be subject to criticism all over this forum that I and others who dared complain were traitors or liberals. It's not my fault that many republican candidates forgot who their bosses are and ignored what the people were telling them.

I agree it won't be easy to reclaim congress, and I was very unhappy about losing the house. I just place the blame with the republican candidates, rather than the republican voters. As long as we blame voters for refusing to buy a subpar product, the makers of that product (in this case, the republican party) are going to keep making it.

I understand that all political parties lose their principles if they're in power too long, but I am extremely disappointed that it only took the GOP a decade to forget why we put them there.

Yes, but it's done . The Dims are in , and in to stay . As i've said, i'll take the bad Repubs that didn't raise taxes and stopped all anti-gun legislation, over the Dims that are currently in control. The problem here , is that the anti-gun Dims control all but one committee (Dingell is a Lib, but pro-gun) . They can do as they please in the house, and God forbid they ever strong-arm the Bluedogs into going along with it .
