While the voters depart the Republicans en-masse to the Democratic side, and boosts the majority from 52 to 70, with 30 deciding to retire in '14 and '16 respectively, shifting to the leftward.

Progressives will take over the US House and remove every single Teapublicans out of the House, and then truly fix what ails America and remove unnecessary and wasteful spending FROM the right. All pork will cease, in replacement will be a federally funded mandate to create jobs for every single American, and easily earn a living wage.
