I hope the Republicans lose the Senate. I think they deserve to lose the majority for refusing to consider a centrist Supreme Court Justice nominee and doing a whole lot of nothing for the last two years.
Anyway, no matter which party wins the Presidency, I'd like to see one branch of Congress be Republican and one be Democrat. I think that's the best chance for some bi-partisan compromise and action, rather than total obstruction by a single-party majority Congress vs. an opposing party President or a blank check for a President whose party rules both Congressional branches.
