we may be better off from a strategic standpoint having the RATs control the House for two years.

How so? The House can cut off all spending for Iraq and spend 2 years on Impeachment proceedings. That would be a disaster.
They could also add all kinds of Liberal ideas to spending bills, but that's the kind of nonsense that would benefit the GOP in the long run.

They aren't going to be able to actually pass anything meaningful with a 1 - 2 seat majority. If they start impeachment proceedings, it would blow up in their faces big time.

Again, I hope we win this cycle, but if it is just going to be 1 or 2 seats either way, then there are a few strategic advantages associated with NOT having to run things without a working majority.

That is all I am saying.
