BS. Obama did win, but that’s beside the point. Democrats didn’t win the house, which is why we’re having this conversation. There may be a reason for Pubs to cave, but Obama winning isn’t one of them.

"but Obama winning isn’t one of them."

Not specifically. Obama's re-election is really a second order effect of 53% of the USA population being complete morons - so if you really want to nit-pick, I'll agree with you.

The republican vote allowed the economy to survive another week - there will be other "conversations", including the Debt Ceiling vote, to dig in.
