“we don’t need the whitehouse”
You need to rethink that. Among other things, the White House makes judicial appointments and liberals have long used biased judges in high places to force their politics down the throats of an unwilling public.
Imagine how effective Barack Obama will be with a tea party house and a tea party senate. Impeachment is just around the corner if it pans out that way. and, the fact is, out chances of winning the WH remain kind of slim.
