will the Democrats answer the door? Will those in the House and Senate become more collaborative than confrontational? The attached Op-Ed article from the Nov 7th issue of The Economist unpacks the possibilities.
From the article: "The coming days will spell out two further lessons. One is that this is not just a triumph for Democrats, but also for American democracy. Voters cannot be taken for granted. If they are angry, they will turn against parties they have long supported. The other lesson, which follows from this, is that both parties now need to find a new way of doing politics—one that spends less time riling up their constituents and more getting things done on their behalf."
