Take confort! 2014 is coming! The glass is half full.
The House isn’t under the control of the Tea Party—I wish it was. We have two vocal leaders Ted Cruz and Mike Lee (with some help from Rand Paul)but the speaker is firmly in the hands of the GOP Old dogs. Liberalism has seen its best days and is destined to be pushed out of office and back into the wings of politics.
Semiannual elections have not, and will not arrest the trend.
