It does appear that the democrats will go down the same path that caused the republicans to suffer a catastrophic defeat.

The democrats might want to consider what you were handed. You were not handed a Mandate; you were handed an Opportunity. If you cannot see this, you will suffer a similar fate the next election. What you do with this Opportunity is up to you. You can make the same mistakes as the republicans made or you can concentrate on doing your job, which is to govern with respsonibility.

But, it looks like we will have two tears of impeachment proceedings, meaningless hearings and no real business will get done. Another term of revenge governance. We will once again be spectators of the prospect of a government shutdown. Let us not forget the panic driven must pass bills to keep all chugging right along.

This last election has been reported by some as the most expensive election in history. Millions upon millions were spent by politicians, lobbyists and special interest groups. Fifty percent of those seeking election or reelection lost. So it stands to reason that a lot of that money spent was wasted. Who benefited from the waste?

It was once said that winning elections is expensive. It would appear that losing elections is expensive too.

Now we come to a question. The question is who really controls the US? The true and right answer is We The People. Sadly this is not entirely correct. We are being run by politicians. The politicians are controlled by the lobbyists and special interest groups.

The best way, as I see it, to show the politicians who really controls this country is to visit the elections office. Register as an independent showing no affiliation to either or any political party. This simple act will cause much consternation in the politicians. Add to that if you attend political rallies stop attending all you hear anyway is lies. Let them stand up there and talk to themselves. Now here in Florida we have a closed primary system, meaning republicans vote in republican primaries and the same for democrats and the other parties. Independents and NPA (no party affiliation) do not get to play. There is an added benefit to this, your mailbox will get less junk mail. On those never-ending polls conducted quit answering their questions. Lastly, quit voting based on another politician’s endorsement, think for yourself.

Each and every election cycle is the same claim, the republicans will save the country from democrats or the democrats will save the country from the republicans. The question becomes who will save the country from the democrats and republicans (politicians)? The answer to that is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
