Thus far, Republicans have put up a valliant fight.

But, please remember as this draws to an end that the GOP never had enough votes to gain a victory over the entrenched Democrats, led by our marxist President.

The best we could've hoped for was a stalemate....which is what we got.

But, in politics, stalemates seldom last very long.
