Four more years of Paul LePage, god drat it Maine. At least Sam Brownback winning made sense from the perspective of a blood red state.

Also since the majority flipped look forward to the TPP, NAFTA 2: Electric Boogoloo being rammed through Congress on a pure up and down vote. Obama's ~legacy~.

Yeah, the TPP and NAFTA are popular among many in both parties.

That said, if Obama utters a word of support, the GOP will find a new wedge issue.

Reid basically stalled voting on it. One good thing about Harry.

Really the Democrats' failure to recognize that Obama's half-assed vague language towards economic populism in 2008 and 2012 delivered him landslide victories and could suggest it might be a winning issue was pretty dumb imo.

Ted Lieu replaced Waxman, and basing this solely on Twitter he seemed the better candidate. Gonna miss Waxman pulling a Clean Air Act from nowhere every 10 years though.
