Here's something (of a stretch, perhaps) to make you feel better about a potential change in control of the senate:
1. No matter who controls the senate, gridlock will continue for the remainder of Obama's term.
2. If the Republicans take control now they will be forced to propose legislation, rather than just oppose any and everything.
3. Because the GOP is so at war with itself it will be difficult for them to find enough common ground amongst themselves to propose anything without a major and publicly reported fight. Obama retains a veto to block anything asinine.
4. Losing the camouflage of "opposition", enough sane and sensible middle-of-the-road American people see the GOP for what it truly represents, and vote accordingly in 2016. RL
