Unfortunately, it's a hollow victory with the Republicans controlling the Senate. It's not even very symbolic since many people vote to keep one party from controlling both the Presidency and Congress to maintain a balance of power between parties.

Then there's the problem of Democrats quickly getting to in house fighting and turf wars. Neither Clinton nor Obama could get their party to focus on universal healthcare when they had the chance. Obama couldn't even get it done before he lost the Dem majority.

OTOH, placebos can make people feel better (right up to their demise). As usual, we'll wait and see; but, I think those going for broke and voting a straight ticket are going to remain broke.
