What we also would have had is a Supreme Court with seven conservatives on it. Everything would suck much worse and there really wouldn't be any hope of it getting better. As for whatever opposition Democrats might have offered in this scenario, we all saw eleven years ago what good that does.
The really terrifying thing is that Obama might have just meekly gone along with a lot of what conservatives want, if they didn't let their racism and complete aversion to any expression of human empathy override all of their other agendas.
