I dislike your political sagacity, because you are most likely correct. :(
I'm surprised that the author of the article did not reference the constitutional clause indicated below which can possibly be a major turning point after the 2014 elections. If patriots can wake up and elect a 2/3 conservative majority to each House of Congress in the 2014 elections, then Congress will be positioned as follows.
Congress will have the power, under the Constitution's Clause 2 of Section 7 of Article I, to override presidential vetoes. This means that Congress will be able to repeal unconstitutional Obamacare Democratcare, for example, without Obama's signature.
The page at the following link has a table indicating the history of presidential vetoes, including Clause 2 veto overrides, Congress using that clause as recently as Bush 41 & 43, and also Clinton.

Nothing will ever top 1994. Elections are too controlled by money now. Democrats can basically buy state-wide elections like the Senate. Urban precincts just overwhelm everyone else.
Every election I've voted in since 2000 has been dubbed 'the most important election of our lifetime'
The upcoming election is always the most important one in our lives, because it is the one upon which we can have an effect. If you abandon the playing field, you cannot influence the game. It is as simple as that. Good, bad or indifferent, do not relinquish your civic duties and responsibilities.
Yes, and voter fraud negated most of our votes where it mattered.............
It's better than that. The Democrats are actually talking about killing jobs as "freeing people from job lock" as if killing jobs is something to spin as a good thing.
When all is said and done, a real likielihood is that nothing much will happen at all in 2014. 2013 was surely no precusor for conservatism in 2014.
I’m afraid the Republican primary voters are either too cowardly or too uninformed to make the changes we endorse. After all, Texans hear on ads that Cornball is the “second most conservative in the Senate”. The ad doesn’t say who is the “first”.
But isn’t Irving, TX, moving to the left?
