What can we expect from this lame-duck Congress?

Answer 1

Well TJ (can I call you TJ?), I honestly do not think much will change. Sure, the Dems now have the House, and apparently the Senate too... but that Senate Majority is SLIM! When you look at the fact that there are several conservative Dems like Joe Lieberman that will side with the Repubs on the War on Terror, I suspect we'll get more of the same. There will be some change in strategy as Bush got a lesson from the election but he's not the type to cave and fold under pressure either. We'll continue in Iraq but may reassess our strategy (which I, as a Repub, agree we need).

Answer 2

There is a reason it is called "lame".
