What neither of you realize, is this is par for the course for the past 40 years, last 2 years of a 2nd term president, usually has the opposing party in control of the congress, nothing new, and I doubt anything will change.
What will happen? Nothing, in party fighting will still prevent anything from being done.
Positive note? Tea Party still did not gain control.
So now that the GOP is in charge, lets just see what happens, I predict a lot of wasted time trying to repeal the ACA and impeachment procedings.
