What do you think? Is this good or bad?

Washington (CNN) - Americans are divided on whether Democratic control of Congress is good for the country, according to a new national poll.

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Monday also indicates that 7 in 10 Americans believe that the Democrats' loss of their 60 seat supermajority in the Senate is a positive move for the country.

Forty-five percent of people questioned in the poll said Democratic control of Congress is a good thing, with 48 percent disagreeing. The margin is within the survey's sampling error. But the results are a shift from last June, when 50 percent felt that Democratic control of both chambers of Congress was good and 41 percent felt it was bad for the country.

It appears to me that the American people are beginning to do some serious thinking rather than continuing with the status quo or the majority in this case.

The polls show the American public doesn't want to be governed by a majority from either party and that we are predominately moderate. Not too conservative not too liberal but moderate. The polls also show that most Americans don't like big government period. If we didn't have to fund big government we'd all have more money to spend.
