'Change' = Liberal supermajority

For everyone talking about a needed 'change'. Well, this would definitely be a 'change'.

This election is indeed incredibly important and historic, but probably not for the reasons you think. The Wall Street Journal has a powerful editorial about the potential Democratic supermajority. You really need to read the entire article but here's the setup:

If the current polls hold, Barack Obama will win the White House on November 4 and Democrats will consolidate their Congressional majorities, probably with a filibuster-proof Senate or very close to it. Without the ability to filibuster, the Senate would become like the House, able to pass whatever the majority wants.

Though we doubt most Americans realize it, this would be one of the most profound political and ideological shifts in U.S. history. Liberals would dominate the entire government in a way they haven't since 1965, or 1933. In other words, the election would mark the restoration of the activist government that fell out of public favor in the 1970s. If the U.S. really is entering a period of unchecked left-wing ascendancy, Americans at least ought to understand what they will be getting, especially with the media cheering it all on.

If this election is over, and Barry and the Democrats are truly headed for a landslide victory and an increase in congressional seats, then my one hope is that after four years of their ridiculous nanny-state-ism, the electorate will swing back to their natural state: center-right; and a revitalized Republican party will come back stronger than ever.

I can 'hope', can't I?
