Democrats have been in power in the House/Senate since 2006 iirc.So it just goes back and forth like this every two years? R,D,R,D,R?
<Knows nothing, trying to learn
it's typical for the president's party to lose seats in the first mid-term into his term, though.
on a side note, though, when was the last time we had the house and senate being controlled by different parties? I can't remember an instance.
