I disagree with this.
What happens is you have one party in office for "x" amount of time, and eventually the public seems to think we can "do better" and we want "change". This is human nature.
We went through eight years of Bush, and we ended up in the shitter. Short of starting a nuclear war it couldn't have been any worse - stuck in two wars with no end in sight and an economy that was by far the worst in my lifetime. Along came Obama, and things obviously got better but for the past eight years the Republican party has been painting a picture about how bad everything is. Over the past eight years we've pretty much ended two wars, unemployment was cut in half, and our economy is moving again. We have more people on healthcare then ever before. But the Republicans spent the past eight years painting a picture of doom and gloom. Thus, we wanted change.
So here we are.... The Republican party is now completely in charge. Let's see how this works out for the next four years. If the first month is any indication, nothing will get done and we'll just look like idiots.
