WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrats are planning an extensive review of what went wrong in the 2014 and 2010 elections, hoping to find ways to translate success in presidential campaigns into future midterm contests.

A party committee will conduct a "top-to-bottom assessment" of the Democrats' performance in recent midterm elections and try to determine why they have struggled to turn out its core voters in nonpresidential elections.

"It's apparent that there are increasingly two separate electorates: a midterm electorate and a presidential electorate. We win one and we don't seem to be able to win the other,"

You won 2008 because BO was black. In '12 you won again because the pubbies nominated a milk toast candidate. You lost badly last week not because Obama is black, but because he is a terrible prez. Your party is too far to the left for most of the country.

I could go on for hours but won't.

They will NEVER consider the possibility that their policies and goals are bad for America and unpopular with Americans. Everything else is just haggling about how to force it on the nation.

Here's the deal, Democrats:

In 2012 you booed God.

In 2014 God booed you.

Good luck.

If they go to a big meeting to hash out their problems and come up with a solution, they would walk out as Libertarians, Tea Party Members, and a few Republicans. The rest would jump from the windows.

The challenge for the Democrat-Socialists is how to rein in obama without appearing to be the racists they, at their core, are .... as they are totally consumed with “race”.

They won in 2012 because people voted for “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” The lost in 2014 because they found out it was all lies.
