along with a lot of other democrats. Now lets see if the republicans can avoid the democrats mistake of over reading their mandate. So far it doesn't look good.
It will be interesting to see how well Tea Party and establishment Republicans interact. While it's a pretty fine line between the two when compared to Democrats, I have to wonder just how much they'll be able to count on each other in proposing legislation, working on the budget, etc.
