1. Republicans want a lost decade.
Just like Japan.

2. Lost Decade?
For most of Americans, the '90s and '00s were lost decades, too. A lost decade for the everyone else is a boom for the others who abscond with the gains of others. Republicans don't care about a lost decade as long as they continue to prosper disproportionately as has been done for three decades and counting since Reagan.

3. Really...more like a "Lost Century"
that actually began in 1981.

4. Voters 2010 = Massive Stockholm Syndrome victims!
That is all I kept thinking as seat after seat went Red on Tuesday, at one point my wife told me to stop yelling because the TV can't hear you! I am just depressed that so many Dems stayed home and chose not to vote and that so many Independents swung back to the very people and policies that triggered the current mess to begin with...Bush and co. got us that deep in the hole over 8 years (96 months), and yet after only 21 months (not even 1/4th of the same time period) they fled back to the arms of their captors for the fleeting promises of their BS agenda! God help us all from here...

5. Paul Krugman said pretty much the same things!
