2010 Midterm Elections

The reality is that an equal portion of left and right makes a strong constitution. If you look back at when Clinton lost both the house and senate to the Republicans our country was able to enjoy some prosperity, but before that he couldn’t get anything done. The genius of Dick Morris’s triangulation strategy was to pass the Republican agenda and take credit for it. Then the Bush administration just about had it all, they had control of the Executive, Judicial, the House and Senate, and they still couldn’t get anything done. After the Bush administration lost the house and the senate to the Democrats things didn’t get any better, so hopefully Obama will end up doing what Clinton did and maybe we can get this country back on track. Charles Krauthammer says that the Republicans are in a beautiful position politically because they have enough power to enforce their position but not enough to take the blame for any failures that the Obama administration might have, and this could be good, or end up being just more of the same. We’ll just have to wait and see.
