The House is always up for re-election (every 2 years) ... all gazillion of them (I forget how many of these princes reside in DC). Only 1/3 of the Senators are up for election - same as it is every 2 years...

I wish I could feel more optimism, but I have little faith in the average voter’s ability to make the right choice a year from now. There is so much that will be said that can manipulate the psychology of the naive electorate. The media machine operates 24/7 and they are constantly seeking ways to manipulate the process; unfortunately, they often succeed in convincing the gullible that everything is the Republicans’ fault. On top of this all, even if the Republicans DO carry the election, will principled, conservative and libertarian leadership actually arise? I so desperately want there to be a transformation, but I am feeling discouraged about the entire process.
