I think you are over-thinking this one. No massive secret conspiracy required.
Our culture-creating organs have been almost entirely controlled by leftists for 50 years. Elections are merely expressions of the popular will, which is largely formed by the culture.
We are just seeing the consequences of 50 years of the Right ignoring the culture while focusing on politics. It worked for a while and we had some victories, notably the (possibly temporary) defeat of Communism. But we are now beginning to pay the price for abandoning the culture.
1)Because the Conservatives are civilized and refuse to brake the law.
Even for our children, and grandchildren.
2)Because Conservatives still believe things will change at the ballot box. So we wait, and wait, and wait.
3)Because Conservatives are not hurting enough, and do not feel threatened enough to stop the commie leviathon.

You are correct.
I was pretty active campaigning for Rob Steele for 1 of 2 seats on the University of Michigan board of regents but people clearly weren’t interested in “meaningless” seats like that so we put two former union officials in those seats. Steel finished 3rd over 5 other candidates.
For those who don’t know. Rob Steel is the tea partier who ran a late entry race against John Dingell and forced him to spend millions defending the throne.
It is the natural thing for democracies to do, and the reason the founders set up a republic and not a democracy.
1)The education system, either by design, inertia, or union incompetence, is failing (I am the product of a not-affluent public school system and a pedestrian public college, and I am shocked to continually find I am WAAAAAAY better educated than the typical 30-and-under who is wandering about out there)
2)Various capitalists, particularly in the banking sector, don’t seem to appreciate the support that capitalism has had in this country. Hence they push the edge of the envelope into areas that much of the public finds repulsive.
Sooner or later calls from the Elizabeth Warren-types to take them to the woodshed find an audience.
3)Leftists have undertaken a very calculated, patient long-term strategy to embed themselves in academia, media and law, and this 100-year effort is now paying dividends.
4)Younger people who did not grow up with the bogeyman of oppressive Communism on the other side of the pond do not understand why it is bad, and seem stunningly open to the idea of a big nanny government and a planned economy.
5)Appeals to race hatred and class jealousy sadly do work, and have always worked throughout human history.

It’s a lot simpler than that, if you study the philosophical school of material dialecticism. Anything that exists can change and it usually does so by giving rise to its complete opposite. We’re just at a point where the dialectical steamroller is gathering speed.
Is it better to receive half a loaf of bread for doing nothing or to work and earn a whole loaf?
Answer my question and you answer yours.

Because it’s easier to do less and grow to be satisfied with what’s being handed out vs taking risks, engaging in hard work and still possibly failing.
I have been saying this for years...
When Democrats are in control, their agenda progresses quickly.
When Republicans are in control, the Democrat agenda still progresses just not as fast.
Democrats are united and dont care about what the other half thinks of their actions. The Republicans never publicly stand up for their agenda, because they are too concerned about public opinion and being labled as obstructionists, racists, etc.
If the entire R party would use their bully pulpets all the time and stand up for their core values, things would be different.
Thats easy. Everyone that isn’t a white man, has been instructed to hate white men and they do! Except some married white gals. Then, after they accept the premise that white men are the reason for anything and everything bad on the planet, they vote for the anti-white man party.
Meanwhile white guys are shaking their head thinking “what the hell? you’re all going to starve!”
corallary of the second law of thermodynamices: "all societies tend toward maximum rot unless acted upon by intelligently directed energy".

Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint... Proverbs 29:18
Brainwashing our youth from grade school, college; adults through MSM & Hollywood.
How about media that fills peoples heads with mush
I talked to a woman Friday in my travels that had no clue about Benghazi. She did seem to know Obama was president again
‘You thinketh too much. Such men are dangerous’. You are not supposed to say that layoffs create Democrats when the spinners claim layoffs create Republicans. This election blew their minds. But victims of really bad economies, vote for government. FDR figured that out.
Actually when people start making good money again working for private industry, they will vote Republican. I like Ike. He figured it out. Create jobs, Boehner, be a hero.
