We don't expect him to fix everything in 2 years. However, we do expect him not to colossally fuck up our country with the kind of absolute shit that he signed over the past two years (stimulus package and Obamacare).


You mean, the stuff he campaigned on and was voted in to do?


lol, What? He had a clear health care plan when he campaigned for election? Or perhaps he already told everyone how much money he expected to spend?

Didn't know those where talking points before.....

How much have federal taxes gone up under Obama? Do you happen to know the number?


Well in 60 days we will see how much taxes go up. That said, it still is a unknown how much healthcare would increase things. Anyways that wasn't the point...

Pass laws that don't affect the budget deficit, Republicans are mad.

What was the question again? And what are you trying to say?

I am saying Democrats have done and will do more to reign in the deficit than Republicans ever have

AP Report: Voter error count possibly in the 30-40k in Colorado, apparently went to Buck instead of Bennet.

Buck (R) vs Bennet (D) is very close in Colorado, 661,000 to 651,000 in Buck's favor

On a personal note, Washington's 8th district Reichert (R) vs DelBene (D) is a Reichert win, 54 to 46 %. Maybe next time.

California is now tons more likely to need a bailout...

and the House will be much less likely to give it to them.

One senses some divine justice in this.

The Reid holdout leaves a bitter aftertaste to an otherwise splendid night, that (hopefully) is the start of real change.

Side note: I don't get the cynical comments about D and R's being the same, hating the two-party system, etc. First of all, I agreed with you. I am an independent and I was just as angry at the Repubs as I was the Dems. But guess what? This election was a direct rebuke to that status quo.

The Tea Party movement is basically a libertarian conservative one that took back the GOP. If you lean in that direction at all, I'm not sure how you can remain critical. The GOP establishment are scared shitless, and for good reason. The TP proved, despite endless ridicule and smear, that you can in fact make a difference, and you can change the political dynamics in this country. Regardless of whether you agree with their ideals, this impact and exercise in democracy is laudable. I know the O'Donnell and Angle types get the most attention (of course), but that's not representative of the movement at all. Marco Rubio, Allen West, Ron Johnson, Paul Ryan (policy proposals linked in previous page by another poster) -- that is the Tea Party -- and you better believe they are determined to make a difference and NOT be more of the same. Because if they are, they'll be gone next.

The American people have finally spoken, and we want fiscal responsibility. Your move, Obama.

I think only 2 Senate races are left to call now, Washington and Colorado. Currently 47 Republican 51 Democrat. I'm surprised at how accurate the projections were. Republicans to gain 6-8 seats, exactly where we are now: 6 seats gained with 2 very close races remaining.

Colorado:
Bennett (D): 708,661
Buck (R): 714,808 +6,147


Washington:
Murray (D): 721,742 +14,261
Rossi (R): 707,481

Adams was a bigger opponent of democratic parties, but your point stands I suppose. I don't recall an election in my lifetime where I was happy with the outcome. All it does is remind me how ridiculous this country is when it comes to politics... Although I shouldn't judge America so harshly. Politics are ridiculous everywhere.

If you mean Adams was an opponent of the Democratic-Republicans, then yeah. He certainly wasn't an opponent of his own party.

He was about as a very moderate Federalist. Lemme' find the quote... “There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, it to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.”

Obviously he wasn't some naive idiot who knew the Republicans were getting ready to form against him, but he had spoken out against democratic measures a lot because of the divisions and strife it would cause.

Washington largely spoke out against political parties due to his own Federalist leanings (Hamilton's whispering from behind) and his absolute hatred (and hypocritical view) of the democratic-republican parties after the Whiskey Rebellion. Generally speaking, his largest argument against him was on his way out of his office... and the time for partisan talk is always at the start or end of one's presidency.

I suppose I could actually argue myself in circles around this subject. I don't think many deep thinkers are in favor of political parties, but all see them as a means to an end and while on the cusp of power, are always quick to embrace any edge that might be granted to them.
