I'm referring to control of government. Yes, those majorities are narrow, but impact on policy is quite strong. Given the proclivity of the current administration to use executive orders willy nilly I anticipate that trend will only continue. The executive branch loves power, regardless of neocons or progs running the show.

The situation is pretty similar in countries with real multi-party systems, with big parties courting the center. There are exceptions in exceptional circumstances (eg. Syriza).
