CNN (Cafferty?) is pushing the "un-divided government may be risky" meme

*Did anybody (i.e. Cafferty) discuss this particular issue while the Repukes were in charge for 6 out of the last 8 years????? Why is one party Democratic rule supposedly more risky than one-party Republican rule????? :wtf:

Interestingly, based on the smattering of comments on the blog, most of the people leaving comments on Cafferty's blog don't seem to be particularly worried about it or at least thinking that they can't do any worse under Democrats than Repukes.

I think perhaps it might be a good idea for us to start a list of all of the HORRIBLE AWFUL things that Obama/Biden and a strong Democratic majority in Congress might accomplish if elected. I think I'll start with:

1.) Expanded/Universal Health Coverage
2.) Fair(er) Tax Plan
3.) More/better regulation of runaway corporations
4.) End to Iraq occupation
5.) Better relationship with allies/greater possibility of diplomacy with difficult countries

for starters..........


However, in the spirit of open-mindedness, I think we should also start a list (or at least TRY to start a list) of all of the wonderful things that McCain/Palin and a strong Democratic majority in Congress might accomplish if (god forbid) elected:
