People said the same thing about the GOP in 2008. That party was dead. Over. Heck, Trump blew it up again, remember?
No matter how often we're told these things are cyclical, we keep forgetting.
It will be good for liberals to be reminded of the importance of the minority party, and checks & balances. They may come to understand that "obstruction" isn't the right word when bad policy can't get a single vote from across the aisle. And that no one is obligated to compromise and pass bad legislation.
