Ah, nevermind, takes 2/3s of both the House and Senate to do it.

People, relax. The ONLY thing that has to change is the GOP run squeaky clean candidates -- and find some scandal on Democrats -- and the result reverses.

Pay attention to the exit polls. The #1 issue of voters was corruption scandals. Not conservatism. Not liberalism. Corruption.

Get squeaky clean and the rightward bias of the US as a whole will return Congress to the GOP.

If the GOP stays true to the President neither house nor senate can get anywhere near the 2/3rds required for overriding a Presidential veto.
