Washington (CNN) -- Bipartisanship is in the eye of the beholder, it seems, as Democrats and Republicans ponder how cooperation between them can improve after the upcoming congressional elections. The voting on November 2 is expected to diminish Democratic majorities in both chambers and perhaps cost them control of the House. Whatever the final tally, widespread voter dissatisfaction with the hostile political climate in Washington is evident. Democrats blame Republican intransigence, calling the GOP a "party of no" that has opposed almost every initiative to undermine President Barack Obama's campaign pledge to change Washington politics. Republican leaders say their opposition is a response to a left-leaning agenda pushed by Obama and Democratic leaders that far exceeds what the public wants. In a new development this election cycle, the conservative Tea Party movement wants to throw out both parties, but its agenda aligns it with Republicans in the heated campaigning.

Lord, I hope not.
HELL NO
I certainly HOPE NOT!!!!!!!
Agreed. Why should they? They are ideological enemies. (Well, at least they’re SUPPOSED to be ideological enemies, although the (R)s sometimes slip up.)
I want to hear a few (R)s after the election say: Elections have consequences.
By “work together” of course the MSM means the GOP caving to Obama.
Absolutely not...the kind of mandate the Republicans are going to get is not a hard message to understand...OPPOSE ALL THAT OBAMA HAS DONE>>>>FIX IT, AND SPENDING AND INTRUSION MUST BE STOPPED.
I hope not! The ‘RATS have shunned the Republicans for the past four years. Now, it’s America’s turn to shun the commie ‘RATS. I want to see Boehner shove that giant gavel up Pelosi’s...
No.
No! For Dims, politics is a zero sum game.
Oh my, has the media given up on this election? LOL!
CNN already setting the table on how the republicans will be mean to the commies.
I invite Hussein to repeal the DeathCare bill, cut the federal budget by 25% immediately, and begin the process of weeding out the left-tards in the State and Defense departments.
He also is urged to help dismantle the federal employee labor unions.
If he begins doing these things, we conservatives will not investigate his administration for voter fraud in Illinois and Pennsylvania.
How do you work with people that have proven and are actively trying to destroy the country?
The Rats have nothing to contribute they need shut down,Remember how they were laughing in 2008 we were dead,I really dislike that bunch of filthy Communists.
I sincerely hope not! CommieCrates must be exterminated (politically speaking, of course), therefore the thought of bi{anything} is impossible! Each and everyone of them need to be made to stand in the corner, facing the wall in silence for the duration of their career’s, until they are retired. This is Just Payback for their Treason!
I hope not. The Republicans always end up losing everything buy their underwear.
Sure, we can work with them... when their numbers in both houses of Congress are in single digits. The GOP can work with the dems on whether the dems mope the Capitol bathrooms on Thursday or Friday. But nothing more.
