With one week until elections it is still unclear in many Senate and House races who will win. The results of these races will change the policy process in Congress. It seems like the Democrats will lose control of the House and possibly the Senate. If Republicans take control it will force President Obama to work more closely with them. This isn't necessarily a bad thing and traditionally more gets done when there's a mix of a Democrat and Republican control in the executive and legislative branches. So by next week we will know whose in and whose out. Lets hope these new leaders can get the changes needed in place.

The Republicans will control the Senate and the House by next week. Even Obama has known this was coming and he pressed his most important policies quickly and early because of it. There is no chance the health care bill would have passed with the Republicans controlling the House and Senate. I think having the Republicans control both of them will be benefitcial for our country so we can produce better policies.
