Clearly this is a black eye for the Democrats, and a "new dawn" for the Republicans (long-term or short-term, it is unclear). Will it help / give more power to the independents? Theoretically, yes, since it makes it clear to Obama that he can't sustain his majority without them, and that they aren't inclined to cut him any slack. But if the Democrats react in anger and blame (as they are wont to do), and the Republicans with arrogance and pride (ditto), then Independents may still be left out in the cold. :-( -- Ernie P. _______________________________________________ Centroids mailing list: [email protected] http://radicalcentrism.com/mailman/listinfo/centroids_radicalcentrism.com Archives at http://radicalcentrism.org/pipermail/centroids_radicalcentrism.com/
