Oh it's definitely the end game for us, especially with the economic teetering on the edges of oblivion.
I agree. I think the country seems to run best when the power is shared. Even if the republicans win both the house and senate, they won't have enough of a majority to stop filibusters or overturn vetoes. This will force them to work with each other on things and find a common ground. Hopefully, if that happens, they will decide to play nice and work together. They could, however, choose to just attack each other in hopes of weakening one another for the next election. That would be a real shame if it happened.
