Former Obama White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs appeared on the Meet the Press roundtable Sunday and laid bare truths about Washington, and his former bosss spokesman.
As the shows featured guest, White House adviser Dan Pfeiffer painted a ludicrously optimistic portrait of the 2014 midterm elections for Democrats, stating emphatically, I believe we will keep the Senate.
Later in the show, Gibbs admitted the Democrats could absolutely lose the Senate. He added: If [Obama] doesnt get more involved in raising money and making this a choice, as Dan Pfeiffer said, you lose the Senate. And, if you lose the Senate, turn out the lights because the partys over.

Believe me, I share your well founded concerns about Republicans. They are a pathetic lot.
However....I think Obama has vicious plans for this country if he can get past 2014 with the senate still in Dem hands. The hapless Pubbies may be stupid and weak, but they are by and large patriots who (especially in the face of a strong voter mandate) will check Obama’s excesses and power grabs.
If the Republicans can’t regain the senate, its on to a full blown dictatorship.
“The party is over. Let the prosecutions and incarcerations begin.”
Pubrick skewls.
Gibbs should understand it won’t make a damn bit of difference.
Guys like John McCain.
It isn’t “if”, Baghdad Bob.
Though I disagree with this second assertion. Republicans need to remember the lesson of 1994.
Christ followers need to remember the lessons of 1517.
And all of America needs to remember the lesson of 586 BC.
It would seem our national debt is insurmountable.
I also understand your concerns, too. And, I went on the side of caution for two elections: McCain and Romney. Fat lot of cowpoop good it did, or ever will do.
These RINOs and hapless second-tier losers need a thrashing - a damned good one. If it takes throwing them out, then so be it. They might as well not even be there for all the good it has done with Obama. It’s time for the sane people to stop this.
With all due respect, I’m just not gonna buy that ‘or else’ line any more.
It would seem our national debt is insurmountable.

Yes, its a ticking time bomb. Its both unpayable and unsustainable. I believe it was Admiral Mike Mullen who correctly said it was the number one problem. It is going to consume us.
“Its time for the sane people to stop this.”

Precious few of them left around anymore.
I don’t think a war could save this bozo...
People will think it started BECAUSE he was so incompetant.
>>Gibbs isnt doing his political calculus correctly. The GOP statists will partner with Democrats to keep the Obama dream of crushing America alive.
He knows that, but they have to put on the show for the rubes.
Pundits. Sick of pundits.
You either hold all 3 branches with a filibuster proof majority in the Senate or you have no real power.
It is that simple.
So was 2012. The eGOP sent in Mittens. We lost.
