We'll be hearing the president saying he looks forward to working with the Dems, and he'll have all these good positive spins. But, you know in private he's not too happy, at all.
The funny thing here is that if Bush listened to the people, things would be different. He has said over and over that he doesn't pay attention to polls. Yet, the polls have been telling him that people aren't happy with his performance, or with what's going in in Iraq. He doesn't care about the polls, and just has wanted to "stay the course" and now it's bit him on the ass.
When the polls give you dismal numbers, you really need to pay attention. Mrs. Cheney was on O'Reilly the other night and when he asked her about this, she said "[they] believe what they are doing is right". This is ignoring that the majority of Americans believe it's wrong. If they weren't so arrogant, and listened to what the people/polls were saying, such a large switch in Congress probably wouldn't have just happened.
I hope other countries take note on this. Especially, the Middle Eastern ones. This is what happens in a Democracy. When the leader refuses to listen to the people, the people can then basically say "Screw you, sir.. now let's see if you'll listen."
