Absolutely....Members of the House can be twisted and turned....The Whitehouse and a dictator such as Obama controls the Dem Senate.
Yet they still insist (as they have for the last 6 years) that the minority Party GOP controls everything and is the blame for all that has happened since 2006. Since there is no elected official in the GOP who is articulate and out there on a daily basis reminding the American people who really is in control, the American people see the "majority party" is republican and they will vote them out in 2014 so that poor Obama and the powerless democrats can finally save America from the republicans.
That is and has been the narrative for the last several years and a narrative that goes indisputed day after day after day.
