It might be better if the GOP doesn’t have the senate majority...with Barry having veto power. His blaming the Repubs will only go so far without control of both houses.

I will go further, it WILL be the best thing for Republicans and the worst thing for Obama if Republicans take the House, and just make gains in the Senate.

If Republicans took both houses like 1995 Obama would veto the budgets for not funding his stuff enough, then dare Republicans to shut down the government so he can blame them for it like 1995. But if it looks like Obama still has the Senate (with little control of it) then it will be more difficult for him to veto the budgets and score points.

Republicans are still not trusted. Democrats have only been unpopular and getting blame for <2 years. We need that to cook a little longer before voters will be really willing to see things turn around. And it wouldnt hurt to get rid of the TARP RINOS.
