The 111th is two Democratic  Senate seats shorts for now--which is good news for the taxpayer.

Both Roland Burris and Al Franken were denied from the Senate's swearing-in ceremony today.  Without those two Democratic senators officially installed the 41 Senate Republicans will be able to more effectively block President-elect Barack Obama's big-ticket agenda items, like the stimulus bill.

I'll be on Cavuto in the 4pm hour to discuss this further.
