Starter topic: Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer on the election's impact: "There are some people who want to argue that ... this was what the Republicans needed, a kick in the pants [...] But it’s also a shift of responsibility to the Democrats. They now have to join in the government in a very hard situation in Iraq and elsewhere. If things don’t go well, they will share in the blame."

Right on the money or too optimistic?
