... and I think we may be in for a strong swing back to the left, provided good congressional timber is put up and not the usual corporate drones.

But we should be slightly wary of the expectation game and so with that in mind we should redouble our efforts and push hard as hell on all fronts!

The Chimp left a real bad taste in the mouth of the electorate as far as Republican candidates are concerned and I think it'll take a long time for them to get over it. Maybe Americans have short memories for a lot of things, but they know which party put us into the economic mess we're still in.
