Election Aftermath

Today is Wednesday November 3rd and Election is now over.  The end result?  The Republicans have stormed back to take control of the House of Rep. while the Senate remains in the Democrats hands.  Beyond these races, numerous Gubernatorial races have change parties, many shifting from Democrat to Republican candidates.  What this all mean for our great nation in the next two years?  Well, in terms of Congress, I there are two scenarios that could present themselves.  A)  Both parties realize they won't be able to get anything done without compromising with the other and we actually see some form of bipartisanship present itself. B)  We face two years of absolute gridlock between the two parties as legislation that each party tries to push threw never makes it out of Congress and to the President's desk.   It will certainly be interesting to see how all this plays out, I'm not entirely confident that both parties will be able to do what is necessary to put their differences aside and some work done.   I guess we shall see.
