So they switched from one wing of the socialist party to the other? I honestly dont see what people are getting happy about.

Your cynicism is abhorrent to the principles that define FR. FR is against socialism, of course, and many of us on FR support the GOP with the approval of FR's owner. If the GOP were a socialist party, those supporting it would've all been banned a long time ago!

Today's move gives the GOP control of the senate - important for organizational matters and navigating legislation through the state system.  The national GOP needs to be reformed, and some of its members (who some call RINOS) and the GOP in the NYS Senate in particular might not be your conservative cup of tea, but I'm sick and tired reading posts from cynical, shallow, small-minded individuals chronically equating the GOP with the socialists. 

The perfect is the enemy of the good.  So take a good, clear look at the political landscape - the nation isn't anywhere near as conservative as we are on FR. Holding out for some fantasy conservative tidal wave at this moment is counter productive, as the other side methodically advances their agenda.

If you think that there is no difference between Obama's policies of destruction, and the policies of most GOP Governors or past Republican presidents, you have a very serious problem.
