"An angry electorate"
I guess the electorate is always angry?
I would say the electorate was DUPED into voting for dems by a massively left leaning MSM.
If I had the energy I would go through the races one by one to see if something I read is true. It sounds plausible.
I read that something like 31 races were lost such that a change of 1% plus one vote (or less) would have reversed the result and the good guys would have won.
I had a few conservative voters tell me (even in my parochial little world) that they would not vote for a Rino we had up for election to the US House. These people didn't vote for Democrats. They simply didn't vote in some of the races or they stayed home.
I don't think the Democrats picked up the votes to win the election. They won by forfeit.
I believe Boehner and his ilk caused the forfeit. I wonder if he understands that.
