1. Do we still have a Senate? All eyes seem to be on the House these days. nt

2. The Sente is still dysfunctional..
...but money bills by the Constitution must originate in the House.

Anyways, it was almost as bad when the Democrats held the House, but the Blue Dogs wouldn't stay on the porch. A lot of them were swept away in '10, and more -- Boren (D-OK) -- aren't running, If the House flips, it should be a little easier to manage.
