RE: Obama, put down the pen and hang up the phone
He never had a dictatorship.
Obamacare will remain.
Nothing will happen out of the Senate, just like nothing has happened out of Congress for the last 4 years.
Congrats on the win guys. Bad electoral cycle, low turnout, and the 6 year rule of an incumbent presidency. But a win is a win.
In order to get things done, you'll have to figure out how to win a high turnout election. Social warrior policies, attacks on the middle class, attacks on womens rights, government shutdowns, and nativist immigrant bashing isn't likely to be successful.
Lets see what the plan is for the GOP.

The US has two different electorates. One votes in midterms and the other votes in POTUS elections. See below.

The Dems have to quit doing that. You know the first order of business is? Pass a Budget which Reid and Obama have never done.

Looks like all your bull backfired to me.
Let's see where the Republicans picked up some big wins....

Wisconsin

Duh. If we didn't know that to begin with, we would have learned from the Dem's mistakes over the past 8 years.
