President Obama claims he could have won a third term if he had been allowed to run but even if he's right, his coattails havent done much for the rest of his party.
While Obamas tireless campaigning, broad demographic appeal and message of hope and change helped propel him to two terms in the White House, his skills on the stump havent translated down the ballot.
The Democratic Party suffered huge losses at every level during Obamas West Wing tenure.
The grand total: a net loss of 1,042 state and federal Democratic posts, including congressional and state legislative seats, governorships and the presidency.
The latter was perhaps the most profound example of Obama's popularity failing to translate to support for his allies. Hillary Clinton, who served as secretary of state under Obama, brought the first family out for numerous campaign appearances. In September, Obama declared that his legacys on the ballot.
Less than two months later, Americans voted for Donald Trump.

I still wake up in the morning and pinch myself!......Holy Moly!.....Trump really did win!
I'm having 'highs' while the Crazy Liberals are having lows.
But did he really Win those Elections? I say that because we know there are Millions and Millions of FRAUDULENT and Illegal Votes cast every Election. Here in California they have been advertising for and pushing ILLEGAL ALIENS to Register and VOTE for the last 10 Years.
If the AG Sessions were to sieze the California Voter Registration database, I GUARANTEE you there are at least 2 Million ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTES
It’s time for the Democrats to accept reality. President Obama has been a disaster for their party from DC down to the local level. Those numbers don’t lie. Once he is out of office, and he tries to take over the party apparatus, that’s when you will see some pushback from fellow Dems. The fear of criticizing the president because of his race hindered the Democrats as much as it did the GOP. In the upcoming years the Obama legacy will be burdensome to the Democrats as much as the Clinton legacy.
That needs to be near the top of President Trump’s list- RETURNING INTEGRITY TO THE BALLOT BOX
But they still control the News Media, the Entertainment Media, The Universities, and the Internet.
Their power needs to be smashed and broken, and until we deinstitutionalize these bastards, they will still wield incredible power in manipulating our electoral process.
All that matter to them is that their guy was King and did so much to fundamentally transform America while tossing them a few crumbs from the looted political opposition while he did so.
And that I believe.
The reality the Dems need to accept is that their philosophy has been utterly rejected. It serves as more evidence the the size of the factions they rely on (LBGTQ, etc) are far smaller than reported by the Democrat Controlled Media. And people who make and earn are rejecting the Dems “free stuff” attempts to buy votes from the stupid.
The Democrats ideas are NOT “progressive” in any way. They are obsolete relics that belong in the trash bin of history.
Dear Democrats, “Time to grow up”
I agree.
Lois Lerner is still laughing at us.
I forgot to mention those. Yes, we need to go after the institutionalized liberal bureaucrats with a murderous rage. We need to get them fired and marginalized. We need to dissolve whole departments, and cut benefits to the Federal Bureaucrats who remain.
80% of the Government employees are Democrats from what I have read. This needs to be dealt with.
Lois Lerner needs to go to prison "pour encourager les autres."
If DJT shuts down the IRS, they will no longer be able to use the IRS to threaten, intimidate, and confiscate.
Our gov’t was set up not to need it, the country never had it for decades. Those decades saw Americans thrive and prosper.
Shut it down, remove their power, and empower free Americans once again.
I cant help but smile every time I hear some newsliar morn the words “President Elect Trump.”
While I still shudder remembering old Serpent Head saying the Dems would be in power for the next 40 years, todays realty brings a smile to my face.
Wow! What more proof do we need of the RACISM in our country??? < /sarc >
Cutting the cable TV would be a good start
Of course, Jorge Busho, as well as our own RINO eunuchs in office, did nothing.
I don't recall him taking any position on the FairTax, which would be one of the ways to eliminate that department.
I've heard that repeatedly, and don't doubt it, but have not seen any credible proof of it.
“...The Kenyan is gone....”
Not yet he isn’t... but it’s coming.
There are not large enough speakers to handle the volume I’ll play “Na Na Na Na Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye” at on that day.
RE: Dem losses during Obamas presidency.
Arkansas in 2008 had:
Democrat Governor
2 Democrat US Senators
3 Democrat and 1 Republican US House Reps
After the 2016 election:
Republican Governor
Republican state Senate and House and all state offices
2 Republican US Senators
4 Republican US House Reps
Hillary Clinton lost with only 33.7% compared to Trump with 60.6% of the votes.

Missouri took a similar turn in 2016 toward Republicans, too.
