Well obviously right now we have an R-HOUSE, D-SENATE, and D-PRESIDENT, but there's several different possible outcomes for the 2012 election, and they're spelled out above. At this preliminary stage, assuming an Obama Democrat ticket and generic Republican ticket for the Presidency, which of the above outcomes would you find most palatable, or least unpalatable depending on which way you look at it?

Reason: title change
The most palatable would be a better educated electorate. That would lead to better qualified politicians and better decisions. People don't seem to want to own up to the idea that politicians are a reflection of the people who put them in office.
DDD, is the only one that matters. The only choice that would matter is the one having the House and Senate comprised of Democrats, with a very, very Republican minority. Of course the presidential selection is moot as Obama takes that.
I vote, none of the above. I don't want Republicans anywhere near the table.

I want a Congress who will take a fine tooth comb to the budget and hand out **** You's instead of IOU's to every redundant agency, department, commission, committee, focus group, and employee that they can possibly think of. No one spared.
