Should make for interesting mid-terms.

Kinda gives you some faith in the system.

As long as it happens to be working in your favor, right?

I try so hard to care about the fillibuster proof majority, but since it's doing us soooooo much good, especially on health care, it's kind of hard.

There are more Republicans electing not to seek another term than there are Dems...in both houses.

I have a hard time thinking of 2 Dems retiring -- regardless of their ranking within Congress -- as being a death-knell for the party, or something indicating Obama's admin in serious trouble....the party in the WH ALWAYS loses seats in the following mid-term.

Those GOP seats coming open could just as easily go to a Dem as the 2 Dem seats going GOP.

Maybe not, once the health care bill's pain kicks in, with the "pleasure" deferred for 3 or 4 years.

Republicans don't need to retake control, just erode the Democratic supermajority. And then I fear that we shall see what I predicted back when the Dems were blocking Bush's SCOTUS nominees: The Reps will do the same thing, only more so.

As ye sow, so shall ye Rep...
