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.

the rnc pollster was on laura ingram this week and said that 8 -10 percent of the Blue collar repub base did not vote because of the way the repub majority handled the amnesty bill. he said that when he interviewed registered repubs they would explode about bush, the senate,and the way it was just left hanging and not killed . he said he had never seen anything like it.

Actually I think that is most often the case.

Joe and Jane Swingvote determine all.

We MUST find new ways to reach them.
And maybe some old ways too.
