re: #7 The War TARDIS

The newspaper explained that it believed Republicans would “temper their policies” with control of the Senate.

“If Gardner wins, of course, it could mean the Senate has flipped to Republicans. However, that doesn’t mean it will simply butt heads with President Obama as the Republican House has done,” it wrote. “As The Wall Street Journal’s Gerald Seib recently pointed out, ‘A look back shows that eras of evenly divided power — Congress fully controlled by one party, the presidency by the other — have turned out to be among the most productive” because both sides temper their policies.”

Oh thank god. I feel much better about potential GOP control of the Senate now that I’m being told they will “temper their policies”.
