I bet you would be much closer to the hair-on-fire end of the cool spectrum: Fonzie to apoplectic. Regarding Virginia and Jersey governorships remember that the only two presidents <b>who didn’t lose both</b> to the other party were those geezers Reagan and Biden.

Heh. Your tax dollars at work, America. :) Voter sentiment may shift in ways no one expects due to unforeseen events, and about the only thing that can be said with any certainty is that whatever voters are talking about right now is going to be different than what they're talking about a year from now.

It's the most popular bill ever signed in the history of our country.
