WASHINGTON -- The national election Tuesday was not only historic for the election of the first African-American president in the nation's history but also for how little the avalanche of Democratic votes changed the political alignment in Congress.

The first Democratic Electoral College landslide in decades did not result in a tight race for control of Congress.

When Franklin D. Roosevelt won his second term for president in 1936, the defeated Republican candidate, Gov. Alf Landon of Kansas, won only two states, Maine and Vermont, and Democrats controlled both houses of Congress by wide margins.

But Obama's win was nothing like that. He may have opened the door to enactment of the long-deferred liberal agenda, but he neither received a broad mandate from the public nor the needed large congressional majorities.

2. Hey Novak!

Go betray your country! That's what you're good at.

3. LOL - Bush needed a pretty strong nudge from the SCOTUS to win

and people still thought he had a mandate. But the Democratic candidate would probably have to win every single electoral vote. It's just comical at this point.

4. not counting the 5+% of votes probably lost due to malfeasance and malfunction.

7. They're kind of cute when their worlds collapse aren't they?

Sorry Bob, 7 million votes is definitely a mandate.
