Well, I think your expectations are insanely unrealistic but you took a good deal of your time to answer the question and I do appreciate that.
If one receives a massive “mandate” from the voters, and your party controls 60 or more Senate seats, picks up 30 or 40 additional house seats and you win the Presidency in 2012 with a 65% to 35%, or 60% to 40% margin, I’d call that a HUGE MANDATE, wouldn’t you? Howe many people would have said Reagan could cut federal taxes from 78% to 28%?
