The Mid Terms and the Senate

The New York Times: Reports on the latest results, the Democrats on 51 Seats hold the Senate while the Republicans are on 46, a gain of six. There are three more States to announce the result. Although the Republicans didn’t take the Senate they control what can get through, to move anything in the Senate you need 60 votes, if the Republicans keep together then the Senate is frozen. The real problem is for Democratic Senators that represent Conservative or Moderate States, will they prevent a Bill that revokes ObamaCare, will they uphold a Presidential veto by the Obama White House. In 2012 a majority of Democrats are up for re - election, are they willing to be flushed down the toilet to save the Obama Presidency. Its fun time again folks on the Hill.
