Greg Mitchell thinks that’s a possibility.
But now Gallup has just found an astonishing surge in those who say right now they want one-party control. Since Obama is doing well at Gallup right now–maintaining a 6% lead today–this would suggest that many folks may also vote for Dems for Congress in an effort to give him something to work with.
So, the Ryan Budget appears to be sinking 1) The Romney campaign, 2) Ryan’s re-election campaign (did you hear he’s too chicken to even debate Rob Zerban?), 3) and creating a desire for Democratic party hegemony in Washington. (read this link)
The Ryan Budget was treated like a serious document by the press who didn’t bother to report on it contents. Now that Paul Ryan and The Ryan Budget are finally getting some attention, people, I mean voters, are horrified by what’s in it.
And they are running in the opposite direction. Maybe they will keep running until they are to the left of Simpson-Bowles?

ryan bases his life’s mission on a pro-abortion atheist socialist moocher who advocates bullying and rape.
he and the sweaty smarmy-smirking faux sincere salesman can go back to their ratholes and talk about people who dare to think they’re ENTITLED (emphasis the silvery streaked one) to food and shelter.
People should be careful what they wish for. Yes, the GOP congress stopped a lot of good from Obama. But it also stopped a lot of BAD from Obama, even though they may have agreed with it.
Imagine all the things congress would not touch if the dems controlled it. Fast N furious. Lybian lies. Obama would be more unchecked in his warmongering than he is now and that’s saying something.
I’d support a united government if said government actually have ideas and plans that could work.

He’s backing off that comment, after doubling down on it. Amusing, no?

The Zombie-Eyed Granny-Starver’s zombie eyes are scaring me.
You don’t have to sugar-coat it for us… ;-)

We already have one party control in DC.
Both DNC & GOP are Corporate channels.
“The U.S.A. has only one political party–the Republican Party, a branch of which calls itself the Democratic Party.” – Susan Sontag
We have corporate control of government.
All else is kabuki.
Enjoy the show.
X2. Truth in a nutshell.
OK. Read the article. I don’t think enough voters know what Simpson-Bowles actually is to make a difference in which corporatist party controls the House.
I really would like to see the Democrats take the House back, because then they would have their chance to really rein in Wall Street and take back a little bit from the top 10%. And then, they would find some way to do worse than nothing while whining about the big, bad Republicans.
Then, maybe, just maybe, so many Democrats will go to a third party that the Democratic Party itself will go the way of the Whigs.
Yeah, I know. Too optimistic. Possible, but not likely. I don’t count on it.
Yes woe could have a majority of Ds in the Senate, Congress & the Presidency.
But, the President is a R(DINO), and we would not have the required 300 votes from senators in the senate. The Rs only need one senator to block Senate legislation (as did Jim Bunning).
Yeah! Like they did in 2008-2009 when the R’s were on the ropes and they had a super-majority in the House and a solid majority (i.e. Filibuster nuking) majority in the Senate!! Oh, wait… nevermind.
