1. Nope. Lazy 2010 voters have cemented majorities in many state legislatures for the GOP.

They gerrymandered the nation but good.

The GOP lost a little ground this year, but will gain it back in 2014.

That's why they pushed all of this extremist garbage in the lame duck session; they won't have the votes they need in 2013.
