If the Republicans get control back of the United States Senate, we will no longer have a check and balance on the White House, on the Republican Congress.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'd like to see that bipartisanship come back that we used to have in the House of Representatives, in the Clinton years. I think there's a possibility that the voters are going to send the message that everybody running - Congress, the Senate, the presidency - that they want us to come together.
Republicans will own Congress.
We must return conservatives to the majority in the U.S. Senate.
The Republican Party will never again be a majority party until we regain the confidence of the American people. I believe there is room for disagreement within the party, and we should not have litmus tests.
I think that if Republicans are given the reins of leadership in the House or Senate or both, we will have to govern in a way - at least put forward solutions whether or not the president goes along with them or not, that deal with these long-term challenges.
I think we have lost track of a core Republican principle of limited government and balancing budgets and restraining federal spending. We have got to change the system.
In a tripartite government with its checks and balances, we have lost the balances.
This used to be a government of checks and balances. Now it's all checks and no balances.
Now that we have the Senate and the House fully controlled by Republicans, we need to be working together.
We are a Republic with different branches of government, and so the Senate and the House are going to be full partners in working with the White House.
