I think it's wrong that whacko Nancy Pelosi is two bullets away from becoming President of the United States, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

But ya'll are getting your undies in a bunch. If the Repub's control the Senate again, it's only half of the equation since the Dem's still control the House. It'll be like when Clinton was prez and the Repub's controlled congress...nothing got done. Which I'd view as a good thing since the Dem's are planning on taking away any tax breaks we currently have.
