Best thing to do for a temper tantrum is to ignore it.

The elections of 2006, 2008 and 2012 were anomalies. Primarily driven by media manipulation. You can fool all of the people (or at lease a voting majority) some of the time. But you can’t fool them forever. A majority of American has just realized that they were being bamboozled by the MSM and Democrats.

It’s worthless commentary from CNN, but they are forced into saying something for the twenty-four hour cycle. Better this, than analyzing pontoon boat sales in Kentucky or the mosquito population of Florida.

That's particularly true when only about 40% of eligible voters show up for midterm elections. Like every party that wins, the GOP will claim that "the American people" have endorsed its agenda in full.

I remember Clinton and the Democrats were claiming a mandate after winning 43% of the vote.

Embrace the Suck, Liberals!

“They elect a president of one party, then two years later almost inevitably give the other party a huge victory in the midterm election.”

Makes one wonder if that presidential election was
legitimate at all. After all the president elect got caught
,red handed, cheating.

Poor CNN, they are hanging on to the last thread they have. I think it is time to flush twice and get rid of them forever.

The big competition among liberals now is which one of the various competing post-election spins gets to be the new Official Party Line on what happened in 2014.

Funny they don’t think this way when “their side” wins. Then it’s all breathless stories about mandates and “I Won”.

Actually, I’ve been saying something similar for years. The American electorate is very fickle. They claim to want low taxes, personal responsibility, and less Government debt. But try to actually take steps to make that happen, like cut ANY Federal program (especially one that benefits them in even the slightest way), and there will be a huge backlash. Likewise, use other tactics (like shutting down the Federal Government) ditto. They don’t like illegals, but try to kick any out and everybody moans about how unfair & un-American that is. In a way, we deserve exactly what we get.

This is why whenever politicians talk about cutting Government, they always use non-specific terms like “fraud” and “waste”. Obama did this to good effect in 2008. Basically, we want to have our cake and eat it too.

CNN and other liberal tail wagging lucky media were praising the nations “singular will” in the 2008 and 2012 elections. Why the change now? Need we speculate?

"Can't these people make up their minds? Four out of the last five elections (2006, 2008, 2010 and now 2014) were "wave" elections in which one party won a sweeping victory. They elect a president of one party, then two years later almost inevitably give the other party a huge victory in the midterm election. Why do they expect things to change? "

I'd dispute that characterization. 2006 may have been a "tsunami" election, followed by a smaller wave in 2008. But 2010 was "a return to normal sea levels". In 2012, a pop culture president was returned to power for reasons that could not have considered his job performance, since pretty much nothing that he promised would happen after his election, actually happened. And most things that he promised would get better after his election, actually got worse.

I think "these people" have definitely made up their minds that they don't like the direction that the country is headed. They'll continue to fire the rascals every few years if they can't produce.

Boils down to a miscalculation by the dims that the populus wanted to move the country “WAY” left. I think almost all of the dims realize that except the punk POTUS.

Groupthink mindguard piece.

They’re everywhere following the midterm slaughter, devoid of logic to keep the believers believing. (NAACP earning an honorable mention)

This isn/t aimed at Republicans as the title suggests, they know why they voted.

It is meant to lift depressed leftist with faux schadenfreude. A discussion topic to cling to as leftists gather in drum circles.

After all CNN and the rest can let the truth stand, could have believers considering they might be wrong. This is a key relentless aspect of the left.
