Democrats Take House, Senate Undecided

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well-not-officially-anyway dept.

Every news publication on earth is saying mostly the same thing. The Democrats have taken the house picking up a sizable number of seats. But the Senate remains a tossup with a few undecided seats holding the balance. Concerns of voter fraud have been heard from around the nation as well.

    The Republicans owned all three branches of the government--House, Senate & Presidential seat.

    Sorry for being picky, BUT the three braches of government are the Executive (president), Legislative (house and senate combined), and the Judiciary (the courts). The House and Senate are NOT seperate branches.

    Let me explain what was happening before. The Republicans owned all three branches of the government--House, Senate & Presidential seat.

    And let me stop you right there; those are not the three branches of the government. You might want to go take a remedial civics class (or wikipedia) before continuing to "explain" anything.

    Absurd. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you! I mean, if I went around saying I was an Emperor because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, people would put me away!
