Elections have consequences....they sure do. I wish we had won the senate.....who do you think is going to give us gays in the military???? Oh you say the house????? Huh. No it will be the judges and it just might be the Supreme Court......who picks those Supreme Court Members and other judges????? Oh the Senate (ok confirms....the President picks them). We got the short end of the stick on this election. Although nobody understands this.......YET!!!! The only thing that will be good with the House is that they start the bills (which is good, but those judges have been a pain in our butts for years).
Actually, a conservative political analyst made a good explanation why winning both the House and the Senate would not have been a good thing. Had the Republican won both then nObama would be able to run in 2012 with the statement that the Rupublicans stopped his agenda. With the Demoncrats the majority in the Senate, although far from having enough votes on party lines to ram bills through, the Demoncrats will carry part of the blame. And, all budgets must originate in the House, which is controlled by the Republicans.
