Dems Score in Tuesday's Elections
I won't make a big deal out of Tuesday's elections. Everybody in the political blogosphere and MSM is writing or commenting on the results. I don't feel I have much to add to the chorus. The Dems scored some points. It might impact next year's congressional elections and it might not, depending on the standing of the Pres and whether he can regain some footing and move the chains a little. Good for the Democrats, they need a couple of victories if the country wants a bit more balance in its political discourse. When one side of the political spectrum controls both houses of Congress, the White House and the Judiciary, things often get out of hand. The government loses the checks and balances necessary to keep EVERYONE on the side of power from getting too arrogant and dictatorial. Let's hope for better days ahead.
