The Senate is now firmly in the hand of the Democrats, who have been waging an unrelenting war against free markets and national security since the election of Barack Obama, now that the Minnesota Supreme Court has ruled that Al Franken, comedian-turned-politician, won last November’s election. This means that the Democrats will not need a single Republican vote to push forward their high taxing, high spending, high borrowing, wealth redistribution-ist agenda in the Senate. There are definite benefits from having a two-party system, a perfect example was the stimulus proposal which was closer to $1 trillion until the Democrats compromised slightly with the Republicans. One can only wonder what an unfettered, ideological faction such as the modern-day Democrats will do with their new-found power. With important legislation regarding healthcare, the current international crises involving North Korea, Iraq, and Iran, and with the economic pressure from China, Russia, and the recession, Americans cannot trust a one-party system to come up with solutions that help all citizens. We must turn the tide of one-party rule. Cuba, Vietnam, and North Korea are also single-party states… see how well it has served them?
