wow, they better be careful, they may get what they wish for... and in two years, as minority party, they may regret like never before, their grab for power.

I remember once when it was basically a 50-50 Senate with a Republican VP.....bunch of pussy Republicans decided they'd 'share' power...see where that got us?

You can't trust any elected Republican to my mind. We need to flog them and threaten them with no-votes every chance we get. Their spines get limp and they succumb to the media in that hell hole Washington.

And in 2 more years or 4 or 6, the Dems will abuse the power they asked for.

“they may get what they wish for... and in two years, as minority party, they may regret like never before, their grab for power.”

Whether the dems are the minority party in two years very much depends on how the repubs behave and vote between now and then. So far, they’re disappointing (to wit, votes on START and repeal of DADT). But...we’ll see how they perform (in House and Senate as well) with the new kids being sworn in.
