so, what is everyone's thoughts on congress

[Oh Shoot]

... Oh, how I wish the silent majority would stand-up and shout as one!

It's actually getting overall worse.

Less than 57% turnout, even to elect The Anointed One, and that was the highest since 1968:

Actually strickj, the Democrats proved this term that they don't need bipartisanship. They have accomplished a lot in some eyes.

In case you haven't noticed, they haven't utilized a single vote this time from the loyal opposition, for obvious reasons. That should be considered, also. Personal interactions should always weigh in the consideration, but look at how the pro-life Stupak

proved there is no such thing as a pro-life Democrat. I think that should weigh on a larger scale.

Which is all the more reason to vote in those who will work with the other side.

Just think of how much happier you would be with the HC bill had bipartisanship occurred instead of both sides saying 'all or nothing'.
