CNN reports the Magic 60 hopes aredimming

It seems the Democrats might not be able reach the filibuster-proof "Magic 60" the party had been hoping for. There are still seats four seats needed to reach the 60 the party needs, but many of the polls have not reached their final tally. I think it is important to remember that the 60 seats are not the end all or be all. Politicians and voters alike need to remember that working together would make the need for the "Magic 60" obsolete. If people could just get past party politics and work with one another then there wouldn't need to be such a focus on this. The Democrats now have the majority in the Senate, House and have put a President in the White House. Not having the 60 they hoped for is not the end of the world.
