If hillary clinton wins then it will be gridlocked as usual but there will be somebody to defend Obamacare, gay rights, Dodd-frank, and the détente with Cuba and Iran.
Im skeptical that the republicans will change, perhaps a four straight democrat victory would cause the republican party to adopt positions from the opposite party just as a 4 in line victory by FDR-Truman caused republicans to adopt new deal policies from Eisenhower until Nixon. And a three straight victory from Reagan-HW bush caused democrats to adopt some of the GOP platform. Usually the longer the years away from the presidency the more it causes the other party to adopt positions from the party in power to regain the presidency.
And id wouldnt be comfortable with thinking that hillary will win easily since there are a lot of democrats already saying they wont vote and its not the usual anti-political circlejerkers(ex:hurrr durr all parties are same, i "dont have time" to vote) or the anti-hillary ones, but passive democrat voters who think everything was fixed by voting once in 2008 and that they dont need to vote.
