ReplyDeleteThe Conservative Republicans Should be able to defeat Liberal/Democrats Easily next year in the mid term elections. I Fear what Obama Will be able to do in his last two years with another Majority in both houses of Congress. Let's ALL Hope and Pray that it doesn't happen. I Can't think of a worse scenario if that happens and then Obama gets two more years to Damage and destroy this country!
