How much was Reagan to blame for his midterm losses. Get over it. The Prez is the ONLY good thing about the GOP right now. Has been that way for some time.

[Howlin]

Is it too early to say that the blame for this loss rests squarely with President Bush and the “Bushbots”?

Is it too early to say that the blame for this loss rests squarely with the Bush Haters, of which you are a member in good standing?

100%

[Arkinsaw]

Anybody ever thought that it was a combination of all? Some folks better start thinking that rather than start hammering at each other and calling names.

[I still care]

Well, I think all those angry white liberals just threw a temper tantrum...

[perfect_rovian_storm]

There are two groups to blame for this:

1) The corrupt bunch of schmucks that got too comfortable in office, not realizing that it's different for a corrupt republican than it is for a corrupt democrat.

2) The media. They pulled out all the stops this election and they beat us.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Profligate spending and growth of government = disaster for Republicans. Case closed.

People don't go to the polls because the economy is good--they go to the polls because the economy is bad.

Bush is the best thing the Republican party has going for it. Don't quit yer day job expecting any election analysis offers to come in.

[KayEyeDoubleDee]

I blame the media coverage of the Iraq war.

You have always been full of yourself and now I see you're full of sh!t too.

[Unam Sanctam]

Who was it that kept saying they were going to sit it out to "punish" Bush and the Republicans? It certainly wasn't your so-called "Bushbots", an incredibly insulting name that implies that no one who thinks for themselves could possibly agree with the President. Any "conservatives" who sat on their hands this election have only themselves to blame for the Democrat victory.

[EDINVA]

were you around in 1982 or 1986?

[Howlin]

and now with the Democrats running the show you are going to see an amnesty bill forwarded and Bush will sign it with a smile as a “great example of bipartisan leadership”.

And it's all because YOU and YOUR ILK wouldn't budge ONE INCH on ANY bill that didn't involve immediate deportation.

Don't try to blame this on Bush; you unappeasables always have believed it's your way or the highway; you never understood that after 40 years of liberals running the government, it was gonna take some time to get things back on the right road.

Now you're made your bed by continually trashing that man for six years.

The Democratic National Party thanks you for your work on their behalf?

[jrooney]

This loss is to blame on only the republicans whom wanted to punish the gop by staying home or voting third party. I blame the conservatives that constantly slammed the gop because their pet project wwas not handled how the ywanted it, such as Michelle Malkin, Rich Lowery, Michael Savage, Bill Kristol, etc. They let us down and now we will have to deal with a Pelosi house and most likely a Reid senate. I hope you all have the extra money to spend on taxes now, I do not. Terrorism will flourish because the donks will cut off the spending for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistanm like they did Vietnam.

[rtsimon]

Bush and the Republican leadership did little to change the public view. They have had little to no backbone since 2000 when it came to the Democrat attacks and allowed public opinion to be skewed by any ole Tom, Dick or Harry Reid that came along. The media's attempt to portray our government as broken has been successful and you know a good part of it is broken. The Republicans broke themselves. I have seen little signs of any Reagan Republicans around. Uncontrollable spending, porous borders and an unbelievable loss of the Iraq PR war. The Republicans deserve this loss tonight. I hate to see it because the consequences will be severe but they did it to themselves and now everyone will pay for it.

[Gelato]

The best hope in stopping the Bush amnesty was a Republican victory in the House in 2006, but the Bushbots sunk it for us all and now with the Democrats running the show you are going to see an amnesty bill forwarded and Bush will sign it with a smile as a “great example of bipartisan leadership”.

Maybe that was the plan all along.

[dakine]

yep...

[NinoFan]

Great post, but be prepared for the responses by the RINOs and the bullies who are going to jump on your post. I see some have already arrived.

[PhiKapMom]

J.D. Hayworth lost in AZ so you can take your obvious glee and shove it. That tossed out the immigration deal! Not very smart to have written this tonight since it is obvious that you and your ilk helped cause this loss by continually saying everything was wrong and most likely staying home.

My opinion of folks like you that want to gloat tonight is that you don't have any class!

Sick spew. Sober up.
