So the Democrats owned the house and cut the Senate to a tight race (undetermined atm though).
With the potential challenges the House can pose, this is potentially great for the American economy; but I think I better cash in my savings now whilst the dollars still weak! On my command, fix bayonets. |

I would believe that statement, people were not so much voting for someone as they were against someone. The biggest problem with losing the House is that they are the starting point for appropriations. The biggest thing they could affect in Iraq is the funding. Hopefully they do not decide to play this game just to spite that same someone.

Well it's done, I did what I could. Why couldn't I have lived in Texas, I could have just voted Kinky...,
My mind is the Pink Zippo that sits on top of a pack of Camel Wides. |

So; if you want to keep an economy that begs tourism in a world where that industry is not the future; plus insure isolationist policies by making it incredibly difficult for most Americans to even leave the country; then all is well. America will be outsourced and eventually outproduced, outskilled, and utterly overtaken globally. This might not be too bad - we didnt suffer tremendously; but in my personal opinion, I really dont think America are *bad* at the top. I dont like the current administrations foreign policy AT ALL (nor does the rest of the world and many of America's population) - but America holds certain ideals that I hold dear to me. If America loses the top spot, I have to worry who might take their stead. Therefore, as a believer in freedom and justice, I have a vested interest in the stability of the country that can probably do the best job as "world leader". On my command, fix bayonets. |

Furthermore, I think that Euryon has dramatically understated the impact of the world currency moving from the dollar to the euro. That will have a devastating impact on the US economy if it happens, as it is one of the primary means of leverage by which we are burning credit at the international level as well as one of the main gears by which the finance industry turns (and as information and manufacturing move overseas, finance has been increasingly critical). |

EDIT: Barring recounts, it looks like the Democrats have probably taken the senate now. Montana is pretty much done and Virginia is just waiting for some provisionals but probably not enough to move a 7000 vote margin. |
