I can't decide whether it would be more productive to have congress flip in the mid-terms of if we ought continue down this road a little bit more...the stimulus has done little more than prop up the massive wasteful governement bureaucracies, particluarly in the bluest states which have been tinkering in socialism for many years, there will be no lesson learned, they will be supported through these bad times at great cost to surrounding more responsible states and will continue on their free spending ways as soon as some normalcy returns....maybe what is needed for those that have been sipping socialism is to get a big mouthful of socialism, like waterboarding

, and really experience some of that "sacrafice" that Obama is always talking about but clearly never intends to participate in as he travels, eats, spends to his heats content.....
