One important thing that Joe missed last night

If the republikans keep the Senate, Joe will have the same four years that Obama had for six, an essentially do nothing Senate with no bills passed. He needs to ask the American people to give him a Senate that will allow our government to move forward. GIVE JOE THE SENATE! It needs to broadcast loud and clear and often. Joe needs the Senate.

When moderate or liberal friends complain “Why aren’t the democrats doing anything? They just TALK.”
I say we have three equal branches. The Congress consists of two branches, and Democrats control ONE of those two branches.
Republicans all but own the judiciary after four years of aggressive appointments, the executive and the Senate.

At the federal level, Democrats basically have 1/2 of 1/3 = 17%.
Leaving republicans with 83% — 5 times as much.

when BunkerBoy claimed that all of his rallies were outside and no one way harmed.

It would have been a "killer" if Joe had asked, "What does Herman Cain have to say about that?"
