politically dangerous. If we control it all and the economy isn’t moving 4 years hence the GOP will be hard pressed to hold on.

Very astute, and spot on.. I have the same reluctance about the Senate, and holding a razor thin majority.. Consequently, the Dems would do to us, basically what we did to them, and force a super majority to pass most every meaningful bill without a prolong fight..

Having to negotiate with weak Dems with a purple state, gives a win with cover and a bipartisan conclusion that Obambam never had..

I would give up my favorite copper-bottom skillet, to have a super majority and skate to utopia but it ain't gonna happen this time..

Even with just a bare minimum control of the Senate, it would be easier for Romney to confirm the two (at least) Supreme Court picks he'll get to make.

Schumer and Leahy are still lurking out there, waiting to pounce on "out of the mainstream" judges.

If they can take and hold and take and hold over the next 8 years perhaps your wish will come true, but given that Obama would be winning, but for this bad economy I’m not hopeful.
