No one has a clue what's going on in Afghanistan (as is the case now). 4. Wrong track ahead of right track. 5. House- Dem 6. Senate Rep 7.

You don't like Marsha? Who's your Congressman? By the way, House and Senate remain in GOP hands. Economy remains strong. Marriage amendment- fails. Tax reform - success. Social Security reform - success No Child Left Behind- nothing ever changes in Public Education.
