Tuesday night merely confirmed the GOP ran flawed candidates, both for the Presidency and for the Senate. Some we knew were flawed going in, others who flamed out after they got the nomination or didn’t prove up to the task of running. The Senate races hurt, but at least it wasn’t as bad as 1958, where we lost more races in one cycle before or since in the history of the party. That took 22 years to recover from. We’ll get some of those seats back in 2018... we just have to make sure we put up our best people. We have a cornucopia of Dem seats up for 2014 that are almost guaranteed to get us above 50.
Flawed candidates, for sure. They prove the stereotype that Conservatives are knuckle dragging buffoons.
But, don’t underestimate the “takers” and the change in demographics. After seeing the effects of the flirtation with socialism said loudly they want the whole enchilada.
So, f*ck them. Let them have it.
