Last night’s elections were a Victory for the Democrats to be sure, but more importantly, they were a victory for America. In my opinion, balanced government is better government. And oversight is a very good thing. Perhaps, just perhaps, we will now have a chance to right some of the wrongs that have occurred in recent years.

The Democratic Party has an opportunity here. And damnit, you’d better not blow it. Cause if you guys screw up, you won’t have to worry about the Republicans holding your feet to the flames. You need to worry about people like me.

When the do-nothing, goose-stepping Republican Congress was taking a dump on the American people, I was shouting from the rooftops. If the Democrats follow suit, I’m gonna shout even louder. And so are countless Americans just like me.

I think the American people demonstrated yesterday that they are sick and fed up with “business as usual” in Washington, as well as in statehouses all over this country. We sent a message that it’s high time that our elected representatives start actually representing OUR interests, rather than their own, or those of their party.

So Democrats, celebrate your victory, but don’t gloat. Republicans, learn the lessons of this midterm election, so that you can right your ship and clean your house. But come January, the time for kissing and crying is over. It’ll be time to get back to work. THE PEOPLE’S WORK.
