Yup, exactly. The assumption that we can win back the House or Senate is some kind of major huberous. Democrats controlled Congress for over 50 years. Makes me wonder if most voters just have no memory before 1994 or what it was like before the Contract with America. The contract is dead. All that hard work. Down the toilet. All because thousands of conservatives couldn't stick with the party for the good of the conservative movement. I haven't been happy with the GOP leadership or their weakness on the border and the like, but I didn't go gutless or jump ship and let the liberals take over. I just don't understand that way of thinking.
Yeah, I think "teaching the party a lesson" is going to backfire big time in this case.
