The real question is how many seats will the bureacraps pick up in the House and Senate. As they already are responsible for the shape our country is in, I wonder if the electorate even noticed.

That was the more important issue in this election. As expected, voters rewarded the Democrats for driving congress' approval rating to an all-time low by expanding their majority. Change (oh yes, there will be change) will be driven by the most radical left-wingers in congress, not by the supposedly centrist president Obama. Only time will tell if Obama turns out to be a gutless rubber stamp yes-man or a leader, but my guess is we won't see Obama the leader until near the end of his first term. By then the Dems will have shown their true colors, and the new Republican majority in the 112th senate will prove that the kind of change the Dems want isn't what the people want. When either party has such a monopoly on the government they can't help but make things worse.

Lord, protect president Obama. Only you know how bad it would be if Biden should become president.

care to put some money on that?

if it's possible, the 2010 maps look even worse for the GOP than 2008.

edit: you are grossly underestimating Obama and Co. if you think they have not studied the mistakes of the first Clinton administration long and hard.

double edit: i love the meme that somehow the country is primarily center-right, being pushed by the vanquished and thoroughly repudiated GOP, and thier cheerleaders like yourself. the GOP is now a regional party - let's see how long they have to wander in the wilderness before they come to grips with that.

2008 election results:

Yes, the Republicans clearly have no continuity or reach anymore.

Excuse me? What have we been hearing over and over for the last eight years? Something about absolute power and what it does?

yeah, but those red areas are fly-over country...thinly populated, perhaps exactly the kind of wilderness/desert areas that soul-searching Republicans are doomed to wander about for the foreseeable future, trying to find their way back into the hearts of mainstream America

[Mazer]

You can hardly claim that the Democrats trounced the Republicans with a mere 52% of the popular vote. The 57.4 million who voted for McCain are far too many to be considered to be on the fringe of American politics. The reason they live in thinly populated fly-over country because they grow the food and mine the minerals and fuels that keep city dwellers like you and me fat and happy. They also supply the majority of military personnel. Be glad they don't hold people like you in the same regard as you hold them, else those red areas might decide to close their borders and the military might decide to go on strike. You can breathe easy, red-state Americans are much too patriotic to do such a thing, but I wouldn't take them for granted if I were you.
