Well the new Congress is sworn in today. What do you think the first thing the House under Boehner will do? How much do you expect Congress to get done and what do you want to see them to get done? How much more much vacation time will President Obama get since we now have a divided Congress?

Democrats will maintain control of the Senate, but with a smaller majority.
The change likely presages a stark ideological conflict with President Barack Obama, who is preparing to defend his legislative accomplishments of the past two years and position himself for a re-election campaign in 2012.
