My fellow conservatives...

please be extra nice to our leftish friends here. They've got it bad enough, with the whupping coming and all.

If you republican'ts take the senate, what are you going to piss and moan about for the next two years Pete?

A whupping implies a 60 seat majority. That ain't gonna happen. no way, no how. You can take that to the bank.

Nuttin' personal ol' bean. The 'Suicide' wing of the GOP aided and abetted by the Groverites who've taken over the party is one of biggest political tragedies of our time. There's no way, no how that they will accomplish any cooperation with the Dems to move the country forward. Gridlock is their only goal while the country's infrastructure crumbles. If that's all the once progressive GOP stands for? They'll be beat like a rented mule in the '16 election when the 'pubbies will be facing a much larger structural disadvantage than the Democrats are facing next week.

Addendum: The GOP will have Sen.Harry Reid bedeviling them McConnell style for the next two years. <grin> Enjoy!

History shows that some of the most important advances in our country have occurred with the President and Congress (both houses) split between parties. If they get both houses, the GOP will be forced to show that they can actually govern. Otherwise, 2016 will be brutal for them (it may anyway because far more GOP Senate seats than Dem seats are in play in 2016).

It will be interesting to see the (relatively) moderate Republicans (McConnell, Boehner) who know this fighting against the 'Bagger faction who have made disagreeing with Obama an article of faith. This election could prove to be a Pyrrhic victory for the GOP if they don't get their governance shit together.

As long as they don't take the country down with them.

The 'Monkey Wrench' faction in the House will be going full tilt boogie for the next two years and their poison pill bills will languish in that old 'tea cooling saucer' in the Senate only to die a miserable and lonely death at the end of the legislative session, old Harry will see to that.

Wailing and impotent gnashing of teeth will ensue from the 'baggers while Cruz grins like a egg faced possum in the back of the henhouse.

Most if not all of that 'red meat' nonsense will never see the President's desk for a veto.
