Anything less than both Chambers and the Executive should be Unthinkable to Us.
Otherwise, we get more of what we've been getting the last four years.
That's pretty much all I have to say. Partly inspired by, perhaps, a false memory: it seems to me that there's a massive dearth of rec'd diaries and front-page stories about the down-ticket races in comparison to other Presidential-choice years here at DKos.
Perhaps I'm completely wrong on that. I don't know of any way to go back and read the Rec List and Frontpage as a snapshot for any particular day in the past. If someone can do that, they can say whether I'm wrong on that point or not.
Still: Anything less than both Chambers and the Executive Should be Unthinkable to Us. And we have to focus on that.
Throw in some Governorships and State Assemblies as well.
