One of the elect

This past Tuesday was election day.  Some were happy, others were not.  According to the results it does  seem that the country is split.  I do not think the country will divide into two countries.  However, who knows?  The point that interests me is that before the election we had a democrat as president, republicans controlled the House, and democrats controlled the Senate.  Two billion dollars later and millions of pestered  voters what do we have?  A democrats as president, republicans in control of the House, and the Senate controlled by democrats.

I was pretty much wrong about the election.  I thought based on the numbers months ago that the election would have a pretty low turnout.  A lot of people were wrong about things as well.  Many thought we would have a new president.  A few by a landslide.  I wonder what happened.  That shows speculation is not reality, as much as we would hope.

Is President Obama going to do anything?  I think he will lay low the first two years.  He might try and pass something near the end of his term.  Because he knows that it will be it.  What did he do his first term?  His party was in control the first two years and he did not really do anything.  His last two years, the House and the Senate were so divided nothing was accomplished.  Some will say President Obama did some good things while others say he did harm.

It does seem that our country is interested in letting the government do more.  Spend more of our money or well borrow more from others is probably the truth.  Now granted, I enjoy free stuff about as much as anyone, but there is personal responsibility.  I think we as Americans have lost some of that.  However, I do not know much, but only what I am told.

Sometimes we have to pray for the best and live through the worst.
