From Thom Hartmann
If you are familiar with the phrase elections have consequences, then you know where I'm going with this.
I have no doubt if the Democratic Socialists of America, or the Green Party, somehow controlled the House of Representatives, instead of representing maybe 3-10 Democrats today and they elected let's say Representative Thom Hartmann, as Speaker of the House or Majority Leader, the legislation that would've come to the House floor, would've looked a lot different, than what we got from the populist Tea Party run House of Representatives. But, again, elections have consequences. House Democrats were blown out of the House in 2010 and lost 62 seats. So, we got a Tea Party run House instead.
