Hooray for Divided Government

Congrats to Scott Brown for winning in Mass. I'm no Republican, but the best this ole libertarian can ever hope for is divided government, and the Democrats' loss of their senatorial super-majority gives us that. Divided government helped make the Clinton years a success, as well as the Reagan Years. Checks and balances for the win.

It's the best we can hope for in a bad situation.


Plus, his daughter Ayla is a hottie with a very Star Warsy name :)



Although I must admit, Blue Twi'leks with lightsabers are more my style...




And said blue babe spells it Aayla (I imagine Ms. Brown got her name from Clan of the Cave Bear). Either way, if any story ever has a Star Wars hook, you know I'm gonna find it!

I've been beating the drum for a divided government voting heuristic for years and enjoyed your post.

Just a courtesy comment to let you know that I linked this post and quoted you in my most recent Carnival of divided government" - a compilation of posts on the subject.
