I know there's a lot of angst out there because the red wave wasn't as big as we were promised, and I know a lot of you want to blame the leadership in the House or the leadership in the Senate or the Chairman of the RNC or Donald Trump or Rick Scott or really anybody but your favorite, loveable team of commentators here at Townhall.

The fact is that when all is said and done, the Republicans will have a majority in the House of Representatives. It might be a small majority, but it will be a majority nonetheless.

And the fact of the matter is the gavel that comes with the powers of the Speaker of the House is the same size whether you have a one-seat majority or a 50-seat majority.

And whoever ends up being the Speaker of the House for the Republicans starting in January 2023 will have incredibly significant and important power.

Be happy... at least for a moment about that.

And then, tomorrow, get right back to being angry at Republicans. Because unless they know you're mad, they won't do any of the things I just told you they were going to do.
