There were no "historic" defeats. Look at history; this election was easily predictable. And yes, this Congress is verifiably, statistically the least productive body to sit in modern times. It's got nothing to do with the Constitution. Obama is well within his power as president - and eminently within his power as a concerned and able citizen - to take action to effect changes. I didn't hear anybody whining when GWB used more executive authority than Obama ever could in office.
