The elections are over.  We're back to gridlock.  A house divided.  Bad, right?  Not necessarily.  Now that the rascals (it seems just about any incumbent office holder qualified) have been turned out, it's up to the new kids to figure out how to move forward.  Unless they're totally blind and fail to use their Learner/Researcher and miss the idea that the voting public seems disenchanted with politicians digging in their heals, avoiding compromise at all costs and serving their personal interests above the public's, this new class should be able to get some things sorted out.  They'll move quickly, too.  Or they'll find themselves out on the curb with their suitcases in two years.

And congrats to rally friends Mark Utecht, the new Mayor of Stacy, MN and Matt Huuki the new 110^th District State Representative in Michigan!
