It was a massive defeat, a mandate - because Cheney and others in Congress stated that it was. This means the reality that we will deal with is one where the government behaves as if it were a massive defeat. And I would expect them to do nothing less - and their bulk of their supporters would require them to do nothing less. But they will offer lip-service to claim a desire to seek unity. A unity between liberals and conservatives where the liberals are expected to accept the swing of the country towards the right.

This has nothing to do with the religion of the founders.
