On the House

It appears that the Republicans have increased their House majority by five seats. That isn’t as much as some had hoped for last year, but in today’s climate, we’ll take it. The GOP should now have a 30 vote margin in the House. Given the rules of that body, which, unlike the Senate, favor party discipline, that’s more than enough.
