Baron Bodissey on election results
As you all know, today was Election Day here in the USA, the midterm elections for Congress. As of this writing it seems that the Republicans have gained control of the Senate, and substantially increased their majority in the House of Representatives.

A decade ago I might have found the news exhilarating, but not this time. It's more like: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."

I'll venture a few predictions for the next two years under an all-Republican Congress:

1. The first thing the new Republican majority in the Senate will do when they are seated in January will be to "reach across the aisle."
2. For the next two years, anything bad that happens in the United States will be blamed on the Republicans in Congress.
3. President Obama -- or rather, the Marxists on his staff who direct his actions -- will, in classic Cloward-Piven fashion, make sure that plenty of bad things happen as soon as the new Congress convenes.
4. The Republican majority in the Senate will gladly assist in the passage of some form of "amnesty".
5. The Republican-controlled Congress will not repeal ObamaCare.
