Republicans did good, but they had help from some very unexpected quarters: Hillary's wicked divisiveness, Bill Clinton campaigning for candidates and Terry McAuliffe. That's because the soccer moms find themselves trying to explain to their kids that, "No, just because Bill Clinton did it with interns and others in the Oval Office DOES NOT mean it is acceptable for you in junior high and high school." When Bill Clinton comes to town, men want to hide their womenfolk and soccer moms their teenage daughters. Like Bill and Hillary Clinton, one cannot even look at McAuliffe without thinking of synonyms for sleaze.

Because of all the mistakes, failures, professed indignation for the establishment, and refusal to follow orders, McAuliffe and the Clinton cabal will soon be frozen out of the Democratic leadership. That process has already begun, but it probably will not be obvious publicly for a few weeks.

What few people realize is that the Democratic Party is not a monolithic organization. Existing is the inner circle, the outer circle and the proletariat.

Today's blue-collar workers are much better educated than workers once were. So, when the Party leadership try using their perverted propaganda to defeat logic, people notice and do not accept the socialist fight against individualism, eccentricity, religion and respected institutions like the Boy Scouts.

Therefore, we see a constant influx of new Republican voters.

I hope to live long enough to see a public school history book contain a chapter titled DEMISE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Kind of gives me a new will to live. ;o)

The Democratic Party would be extinct without the nightly news of NBC/CBS/ABC

I was a active member of the Democratic Party since 1968. I volunteered to work for Bobby Kennedy when he ran for President and won the California pimary. I have voted nearly a straight Republican ticket since Clinton created voter outrage by his military policy of "don't ask don't tell."

The party of Clinton is not the same Dmocratic Party that I joined more than 33 years ago. It is party the permits and encouages the solicitation of bribes ("Chinagate") and encorages treason. Lying, coercion of witnesses, andcover-ups are Stadanrd Operating Procedure. Party old timers are rolling in their graves .....

Clinton should be arrested and tried for treason. Pelosi is a good choice. The Democrats will rally behind her. And march leftward happily onto the trash heap of history.

Let the DemonRATS commit political suicide ...... who give a RATS'@ass?

Yes, Jim, it's dead. It's dead Jim.

In Jersey I see that mortal infighting has begun. The winner will be the first to see that a new party is the ticket. Advantage: Hudson County where parties are second to political clubs.

Who knows -- maybe it will be a mass conversion to the GOP -- nah.

Barbra Streisand and friends are kingmakers? Oh Yuck, it's so creepy.

Or maybe it's a bunch of old elite liberals with inherited money and limited brainpower. That seems more likely.

Or sleazy, rich lowlifes like Larry Flynt. The porn pushers don't back Republicans.

Or a more common criminal type, the kind who pay off liberal judges - the Soprano types...Yeah, they're all democrats. I think I know why they "don't show up at meetings".

"The real Party leadership do not show up at meetings, only provide "suggestions" for overall policy. These are the real limousine liberals... "
