While Republican and Conservative expectations 2 weeks from now may well be justified I would like to inject a few words of caution. At best there would be very narrow edges in both chambers if the GOP does indeed attain a majority. In the Senate at Super Best it's 52 Republicans, and in the House possibly a 12 seat edge. No way more than that. This means Nothing gets accomplished.
It also means 2 things . Obama has the focus & the Heat taken off of him by a helpful MSM who will delight in seeing Rand Paul , Sharon Angle & others waltz thru the Hallways of the Capitol looking like Pfc's being given a Regiment to lead. Any mis step will be portrayed as a SNL routine and some are itching for this to occur. This includes Obama.
Also if the GOP does Super well it puts Sarah Palin front & center as NEVER before to the delight of many Hard Conservatives who cannot be realistic concerning her. She may even be on a substantial momentum which will propel her onward and low and behold with this much enthusiasm she is indeed the 2012 nominee. :shock:
This turn of events if feasible is exactly what Liberals want. They are more interested in Obama getting a 2nd term somehow than if Reid, Feingold, Boxer, Murray etc hang onto their seats. The long term stategy is already under way and while Obama would like to minimize losses I doubt he really cares too deeply about the survivability of Many other Liberal Democrats.
Just a thought here if indeed some massive jubilation breaks out 15 days from now. Barry has the Veto and will use it and it's really all about 2012.
