I think there's a decent chance that some good will come out of this (like Bill Clinton and the republican congress).

Wait. The GOP Congress was literally shooting watermelons to try and prove Clinton had Vince Foster murdered. And the Gingrich government shut-downs. And the travel office investigations. And the Whitewater investigations. And the impeachment. And on and on. The 1994 GOP win set the foundation for the McConnell Senate under Obama.
