Let me think: A party going for a third straight presidential win, where the incumbent president has sustained disapproval, AND a financial panic the likes of which had not been seen since 1987 if not 1907 AND the evaporation of at least 4 trillion dollars in paper wealth in the months leading up to the election.
That party's candidate will lose every time. If we weren't so polarized as a nation, our party would have lost by more.
True, the odds were against us, but that begs the question of what “da yout” would have done. I think Hillary would not have come close to half what Obama got in the 18-24 range.
