Dear President Obama,
It’s not us; it’s you. It’s all you.
In the election in which you sought and gained ballot access while repeatedly disregarding pleas of the actual Democrat candidates- candidates who wanted nothing to do with you-- and just wanted you to sit down and shut up, you got beat.
And now Democrats know how Chicago feels.
Just like you did with your “hometown,” you used the Democrats to build a legacy for yourself. And then left them to burn and rot.
How’s this for a legacy? In addition to losing Libya, Egypt (only for a time), Iraq, Afghanistan and parts of Ukraine, you now have some other failed states to put in the loss column.
You lost Illinois.
You lost Maryland.
You lost Massachusetts.
You lost Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Montana, North Carolina, South Dakota, and West Virginia.
Those are only the statewide races you lost.
It was all the more fitting that it happened on the day on which I got the news that my insurance premiums are going up by $3,000 per year.
I know you are math challenged, so let me add it up for you.
That money that I’m paying for increased premiums will cost the average worker who needs to save for retirement $475,770.12 over a 35 year working career.
That’s a house. That’s an Ivy League education. That’s the difference between being able to afford a standard of living that includes things like food and medicine or being stuck on another crappy government program that you designed, pushed and walked away from so it could rot and burn.
I’m not the only one this happened to either.
According to the Washington Examiner 2014 saw healthcare premium increases across the board, regardless of age.
“Average premium increases ranged from a low of 22.7 percent among 63-year-old men to a high of 78.2 percent among 23-year-old men,” writes the Examiner. “Among women, the range was 35.1 percent for 30-year-olds to 44.9 percent among 23-year-olds.”
So yes, of course the election was about you.
You’re Barack H. Obama, for crying out loud. It’s ALWAYS about you.
It was about you when you raised taxes on every single working American in January of 2013 as you readied yourself for your second coronation and raised the payroll tax.
It’s been about you as you let languish on your desk the approval of the Keystone pipeline, a measure that could help Americans save $180 million dollars a day in transportation costs and help create 10 million jobs here at home.
It was about you when decided not to fix immigration while you had a Democrat majority and instead held illegal immigrants hostage, strangers in a strange land, with neither hope, nor change, permanent victims to a gutless government that’s ambivalent to them even as it exploits them.
As much as any election I can remember, including those I have studied throughout history, this election was about a man.
Congratulations, but be careful what you wish for.
Because unfortunately for you, it wasn’t about that man’s popularity, his ability to give a good speech, his carefully scripted life, sanitized by media—that incidentally are about you as well.
Instead it was about what that man is about in his gut, at his core, in his heart.
And in this election Americans have finally, firmly and I hope irretrievably come to the conclusion that Barack H. Obama in his gut, his core, his heart is all about Barack H. Obama.
So now you got the election you dreamed of, something to burnish in marble.
We’re all on the same page with you, buddy.
Enjoy it.
It will be your legacy.
May that legacy rot and burn.
And that is why the rats lost
All the king's horses and all the king's men...
Even with the full court press that the MSM performed to protect the Big O, his legacy as a loser prevails.
Now, President Chip-on-his-shoulder is going to triple down on stupid.
Mmmmmmm...haven’t seen that breakdown.......if they did, sure as hell Democrats wont admit it (/snix).
“You lost Illinois.
You lost Maryland.
You lost Massachusetts.
You lost Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Montana, North Carolina, South Dakota, and West Virginia.”
I stayed home from work yesterday to take a
“Schadenfreude Day”
The Dems are alll within the borders of major cities. The term “siege warfare” comes to mind.

I wish I’d written that. It’s excellent. This should be shouted from the rooftops.
I think that could very well be the tone set by the next congress and conservatives will find themselves in the hole once again in 2016 because of these weak leaders.
What confuses me is how so many of the newer members in congress are pressured into support these weak leaders even though their supporters clearly want them to step aside and let a conservative trend prevail.
Great article!
It will now be fun to start watching the RATS in his administration slinking off the sinking ship!
Let me be the first to predict that Obama will resign!
He admits to a weak inner core (laziness) and a divorce is around the corner.
With his buddy rats abandoning ship and stabbing him in the back..............he will quit!
Lol..
It’s only about him and unfortunately we’re in the minority midterm 1/3rd he doesn’t listen to.

*snicker*
Politico’s results say Republicans lost 2 House seats and 0 Senate seats. All the articles seem to say the only governor seat we lost was Pennsylvania.
Didn’t the Republican governor of Alaska lose to an Independent?
I am not sure if the Independent is a Democrat running as one or not
Democrats didn't oust any republican senators. Democrats lost 7
Republicans defeated 15 democrat representitives, Democrats defeated 3 republicans.
All in all, republicans lost 4 seats, democrats lost 19.
--------------------------->
Excellent choice!
As of now the republican incumbent is down 1.4% or 3,165 votes. The absentee votes "COULD" switch that.
It could take 2 weeks to find out.
The current leader is non party affiliated.
Thanks, is there one Wiki page that summarizes that? I’d like to see that link.
It’s pretty amazing that Corbett won PA with almost 55% in 2010 and now lost to Wolf who got about the same 55%. Turnout was down 15%. Does anyone know how turnout overall this cycle compared to 2010?
In fact, Wolf got almost exactly the same amount of votes that the Democrat in 2010 got, 1.8 million both times. But Corbett lost 600,000 votes this time. So this really does seem like a Romney-esque case of Corbett losing the base.
A good read except the immigration reform part. Too lefty for me on that one.
