From a few quick perusals over at the DUmp: they STILL can’t figure out what went wrong. Most still have this “how could the voters not see how much we want to help them” attitude.
Well, a couple have grasped the idea they reached too far but the vast majority just does not have a clue.

And as history has shown they never will...

Perhaps it is precisely that sort of insulting generalization which leads liberals to consistently under-perform with Hispanic voters. By now it should have occurred to at least some of them that the quality of the candidate and the positions they embrace are more important to many voters than whether they have a D or an R after their name

I imagine it was quite the shock Wednesday morning to many libtards that the GOP "stole" a large potion of the Hispanic base from them...

That's the problem with libtards they think the color of your skin denotes your political beliefs...

They think that because in their minds your political persuasion is determined by the class of people you are, not your character

She only ran on issues relating to rape, abortion, late-term abortion, abortion and abortion.

She was propped up buy out of state leftards and a few in-state ones as well as the default Dem voters. Not enough blue steam for the abortion barbie express and she got railroaded instead as is fitting.

Windy can have our post election recycled votes if it makes her feel better. Sort of like a souvenir consolation prize.
Better luck next time-— NOT.

Woman didn’t even pretend to be a moderate. She was toast from day 1.

Tell bloody barbie that the aborted baby pro-life votes were the margin of victory over the dead Dem cemetery voters.

Too many voters thought she was Jennifer Granholm

“What I don’t understand is how it ever “went right” for Davis”

The media always overstates the possibility that the commie-of-the-month might actually win.

Wendy Davis? In TEXAS?

It is to laugh.

Democrats figured it would be a breeze getting a ditz like Wendy elected with an electorate dumb enough to elect and reelect people like Barack Obama, Nanny Pelosi, Harry Reid, Dick Durban, etc.

Yet none of this explains exactly how the Texas Democrat strategists got this so completely wrong.

Perhaps the "strategists" are not without bias themselves and simply published the results they were hoping for as "projections" rather than looking at reality.

After the filibortion/abortibuster was over the mediots lost interest in her...especially when it came out how miserably she treated her family (not that the presstitutes care much about that, I guess).

“Hail Satan!” didn’t go over so well in the bible belt. Who could have guessed?

I think it was promoting abortion as the most important thing to all women, when feeding their families and paying their bills in a down economy affects everyone.
