I like the balance of a Congress that is of the party opposite the President.
Did you feel worried whenthe Democrats held the House and Senate for so much of the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's? Of course I would have to admit in the 50's and 60's the Democratic party was a much different party than what we see now.

Well, no. In the 80s, a Republican was President, so my theory would ask for a Democrat-controlled congress. In the 70's my concerns were much more GI Joe than Congress, so I wasn't too concerned then, and in the 50's and 60's I was not yet even an itch in my father's pants, so I didn't care too much then either.
