Where would we be if we hadn't lost the House?
Further in debt or with a growing economy? Businesses in trouble or investing in more equipment and hiring?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1454663If the dems still had the house, taxes would have been raised, a very bloated budget with all kinds of new spending would have been passed, 0bama wouldn't be talking about deficit reduction, the debt ceiling would be raised every other week, unemployment would probably top 12% by now, and Nancy Pelosi would still be flying in her tax payer funded jet running up bar tabs that rival Willy Pitt's.

9. What do I think?
I think we would be further ahead on both the economy and jobs.
I think by hook or by crook, there would be more concentration on infrastructure and green jobs.
I think Obama would blow the Repugs out of the water with his vision and energy.
I think there would be less Democrats growling about how Obama is doing and more new Democrats ready to vote Obama in for another term.
I think Obama wouldn't have so many gray hairs and wrinkles. Bless his heart.
Reminds me of all the if Al Gore hadn't of been cheated threads, where they claimed 9-11 would have been stopped.

Oh yes you did, your party implemented step one of single payer health care, you just are too shortsighted to see it.
