The excuses? Off top of my head:
A lot depends on where senate ends up, and I think the GOP will have the majority with 53-54 seats. So:
First there will be denial. And anger. Charges of racism and fraud will be prevalent.
Then there will be a rush by some hard core liberals to blame Obama personally so as to excuse liberalism per se.
And there will be a counter charge from the personality cult of Obama that the media and other liberals let their guy down.
It will manifest in their insistence that all of this is still the fault of 8 years of Bush Cheney - and that we must not go back to “the failed policies of the past.” Obama Care will also be “re litigated” to use an Obama term.
Just some quickie thoughts there...
And as Mark Levin has said, we will have to “deal with all of that later” - and we will.
“Then there will be a rush by some hard core liberals to blame Obama personally so as to excuse liberalism per se.”
Thanks. This one sticks out to me because I’ve always thought of the Clinton wing of the Democrats as being more “incrementalist” in their methods, compared to Obama who’s rammed as much through as fast as he possibly could.
If Obama receives personal blame by his party, I can see it being along those lines. Too much too fast.
While the goals remain the same, it’s easier to maintain the illusion of moderation as the Clintons have done, and avoid wholesale rejection, when Socialism is instituted in little steps.
And I really hope you’re right about the Senate!

That's a bit fractionated when in real terms, one can already plot the media map for next week -- because believe me, MSM producers are already doing so if they want to keep their job. Guests take time.
I posted this on another thread but it's applicable here:
Bobo's apologists will be out in force next Wed. to explain his loss thusly: 'We did better than anyone said we would with this strategy (screw white people), because seriously guys, have you seen this economy? It's a wreck!'
And then the day after that on Thursday, the Clintonites will be out in force to reclaim the Democrat Party and how they will 'fix' the brand. And you'll never hear from Axelrot or Ploofter or JarJarrett in the MSM again.
