i see the major political parties in the states as representing factions within the oligarchy and, by extension, the united states as being fundamentally a single-party state with two right wings.

even so, i still do not see why the issue raised via the op is of any particular interest or importance. like others have already said, the democrats have no even started exercizing such power as they have yet. and it is self-evident that a process of horsetrading would accompany that of taking congressional power, such as it is--particularly given the tightness of the percentages that are at play in congress. so i dont see this as a particular index of anything beyond that.
