I think our two party system spends most of their time fighting each other and any positive things that result is accidental. talk about "fiddling while Rome burns"!
I think the Repubs are to blame for much of our current delimma. they had the control of the a white house and the Congress for 6 years and didn't fix anything domestically. Don't hold your breathe for the Pilosi-Reid-Obama crowd to fix things. Double digit inflation is next. Give it 3-5 years.
Interesting times....no???
