"Dumbocrats keep saying vote Republican and more years of the same ...no change..but.......how many years now has the Democrats been the majority?"
Republicans were the majority party in both the Senate and the House from 2000 to 2006.
From 2006 to the present, the Democratic party has held a majority in the House and Senate. Their majority in the Senate is 51-49, and by Senate rules, the minority party can block any bill from coming up that has less than 60 votes. In other words, the Democrats haven't been able to pass anything through the Senate that the Republicans don't approve of.
