Quote:I'm curious what agenda's they are frustrated that have not been achieved? We almost have socialized medicine, give it about 4 years, the way it's set up the ACA will be a disastrous and people will be begging for a single payer system. It's actually a brilliant plan on the democrats side.

 

They've successfully blocked the Key Stone pipeline I know a few liberals that see the pipe line as a big deal.

 

Maybe not enough in the welfare expansion? But I find welfare to be a hit or miss issue, I know plenty of liberals that have problems with welfare. I'm curious what they are seeking that they feel hasn't been achieved or maybe not enough has been done?

 

I know on the right side, I can rattle off a list long enough to fill a book I'm upset about but I always that it was clear I'm on the losing side?

Politics is about power and leverage and I expect to see a few things changed/passed as a result of the election.  For ex/ I can see the pres signing off on Keystone in return for congress passing the IMF reform bill.  I could also see the admin agreeing to reduce the corp income tax rate to repatriate $$ in return for congress agreeing to allocate more $$ to infrastructure projects.  I think where things will get sticky is with Obama's stance on immigration and threat of exec order, and Congress trying to repeal elements of the ACA. (Although, I could see compromise on both.)
