Balance Of Power, Remember That?

I truly believe that Government is most responsible when multiple parties share power. When the White House, Senate and House or Representatives are all controlled by the same machine, what we have is a majority forcing their will on a minority. That is counter to the ideology of our system of Government, but moreover it's dangerous. Look what happened in California when a majority forced its will on a minority...

The fact that the Dems no longer have a super majority is a good thing. It means that they must work on legislation that appeals to everyone, not just an elite group of liberals.
