Default GOP is kicking ass...

That is all I'm going to say on the subject.

No Senate but that was a pipedream anyway. Wonder how much spite legislation gets passed before the changeover

i'll be interested to see how prop 19 did in the morning. just checked and it's down 55-45 or something like that but only 17% of precincts reporting.

Prop 19 isn't going to pass...its currently 60/40 against/for. The problem is every politician is against it (I guess it isn't a family thing).

It's getting higher and higher support each year though...

My hope is that the GOP remembers that they are winning not because of their social policy but simply because between Obamacare and Obama incredibly irresponsible spending. GOP you got my Vote this time Stay out of our Bodies and Bedrooms

This is actually the way I like things with the exception of the senate. Heavily influenced republican policy is the only way it leaves congress, but the democrat president will veto anything too extremist. It forces them to be centrist or they can't do shit to us. I think it works better than democrat congress/republican president.

The best thing about a split government is that they spend so much time fighting with each other, they don't get anything passed that isn't absolutely necessary. That means limited opportunities to fuck things up.
