I mildly disagree with the opening premise. The dems did indeed learn from the midterms that the country leans right, and may very well do so for the forseeable future after seeing how Obama’s spending binge has only driven us deeper into that ditch.
The left are pushing HARD against this reality because leftists by nature have the temperament of children—they don’t care about ‘facts’ or ‘reality,’ they want what they want, and when do they want it? NOW!
I think the very idea that they had their chance and lost infuriated them because they were SOOOOO close to their dreams—A Black President! Healthcare for all! The USA no longer a world power! Swords into plowshares! Rush Limbaugh defeated by Fairness Doctrine ‘competition’!
But you don’t just ‘get’ all that stuff. The thing is, when you get down to it, leftists think they deserve what they want for one reason: They REEEEEALLY want it! Isn’t that reason enough to give it to them?
Now the rest of the country has said “Enough with this foolishness,” and the leftists aren’t going to just say “Oh, all right,” as a reasonable person would.
if they were reasonable, they wouldn’t be leftists.
I will add that the left DOES understand that their world view is the minority point of view. Small minority. The sands of time are running against them. Thus, their spoiled-brat-teenager mentality kicks into high gear. They know that the "adults" are coming home to spoil their little me-me-me party.
You Know the Democrats keep Harping on the Bush Drove us into a Ditch Routine,the facts are as soon as the Democrats won the elections in 08 they announced that they were now going to Makeup for the past 8 years of neglect By Bush and then went on a Spending Binge which exposed them as Frauds once again,you cant complain about being driven into a ditch by Bush and then Double the Spending. Only Democrats get away with that stupidity,well I guess that is self explanitory,but I dont know why so many idiots just went around spewing that idiocy
