We are losing all the wonderful individual practicioners that could give a patient the time to explain and comfort rather than just the present
"Nurse! Next!" we hear so often.

Overall, not much will change. Same old ineptitude on the part of Congress. For the most part, the REAL players are still the same on both sides of the aisle. The Democrats now have a "majority" in name only. It's slim, just as the Republicans had before them. For a decade, this has been a do-nothing Congress way beyond what we would consider typical "do-nothing". The Republicans couldn't get anything done, and the Democrats will not be any different.
There is NOT unanimity(?) among the Democrats. Just as there was none among the Republicans. Moderate Dems will not agree with certain left-wing proposals, and may even side with moderate Republicans, God forbid.
In the end, nothing will get done; EXCEPT for Iraq. On that, there just may be concensus; to stop funding and "cut & run".
Life goes on. Get back to work. You've got lots of pork to pay for. B-)

Ed,
I think something will get done. With two years until national elections, it's time to begin running for office again.
Heaven forbid, any substantial work take place, in the meantime.
I hope to be wrong with that prediction.
