Well, yes. My first line, after all, was expressing delight that the single-party-rule was broken, and that the steamroller has been stopped.
I just don't see that steamroller being backed up if the Democrats take a sweep of the executive and legislative branches in 2008, as some apparently do. It's been stopped, and frankly, that's all we can really hope for in our political system.
I agree with your assessment about which party has seemed better suited to which branch over time.
