I expect the RW crazy will continue for quite some time at the state and federal levels since they have gained so many seats.

Other signs of RW madness include George Will now spinning inequality as a good thing and others in the media (like Richard Quest on CNN) celebrating the growing number of billionaires as a good thing we should all apparently aspire to.
