Obama has had a rough time and it seems as though the American people dont see the progress he has made. Unfortunately, Republicans now have the majority. Not that the Democrats were really using their majority advantage, but now it will be difficult for Obama and the democracts to play with democratic policy. With the republican house in his path, Obama will need to consider diffferent routes of which the GOP is willing to talk .The split house may be a bothersome, but there is one thing that Obama can count on, and that is the people.
1. Why are Republicans expected to get control of the Senate in 2012?
- in my opinion they wont get it
2. What are John Boehner's priorities?
- getting the GOP together on handling the federal debt ceiling and do a little bit more lieing
3. What is different about the remaining Democrats?
- they haven't learned from their issues
4. What are Nancy Pelosi's potential plans?
- use her power while she still can
5. What hard did some Tea Party candidates cause for Republicans?
- conflicting ideas
6. Why is control of the governorships & state legislatures important for the Republican party? - political influence of the population as well as gerrymandering.
7. What does it mean that the election was a referendum on Obama?
- the people's check on his progress.
8. How will Obama have to approach Congress differently now?
- alot of convincing, a lot of "i might as well not even bother with them" types of approch.
