In 2004, there was all this talk about the permanent Republican majority. Then they got their asses kicked in 2006 and 2008.
So I was amazed, after 2008's victories, to hear so many people talking about how the Republicans were now a "regional party" "doomed to spend years in the wilderness finding their way back to power." Etc.
I can only hope the Democrats rebound from their 23,576-to-12 seat disadvantage as quickly as they lost it.
Yeah, that was a good one. Usually I think about 95% of the laughs in Onion articles are contained within the headline, but this one was funny all the way through.

Yes, we need more articles like that. Just for perspective, you know.
