Democrats Are in Worse Shape than Even They Think

Warnings — or, in some cases, celebrations — that the Democrats are on the verge of a disastrous collapse have been growing more frequent recently. Since the election, Rush Limbaugh has been hammering the point that the campaign has only continued — and extended the trend set in 2010, when Democrats lost the House. Since then, Democrats have lost 1200 national and statewide seats.
And earlier this week, Stewart Lawrence, writing in the Daily Caller, and picking up on a study by the centrist “Third Way” think tank, noted that the Democrats are now almost exclusively a coastal party, with a couple of lone interior outposts such as Chicago and Minneapolis. According to the study, while Hillary Clinton beat Trump in California, New York and Massachusetts by 30%, Trump won the rest of the states by 52-48%. Some 32 state legislatures are in Republican hands, but in only five states do Democrats control both houses of the legislature and the governor’s mansion.
And, as many (including Lawrence) note, in 2018 the Democrats must defend 10 U.S. Senate seats in states that Trump won. Meanwhile, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, once thought dead in the water, won re-election in 2016, as did John McCain in Arizona, despite the fact that many conservatives, sick of his antics, voted for the Democrat.
If the left can’t win these seats — the most low-hanging of fruit — where can they win? The fact is, although we now know the polls were horribly wrong, *Trump’s victory was quite small compared to what it might have been. (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
POSTERS NOTE: *Trump’s victory was quite small compared to what it might have been....b/c of Obama/Hillary's massive voter fraud.
I like your new moniker for Pelosi!,,
We must continue to work hard and stay vigilant
Democrats did make modest gains in the Senate (2 seats) and the House (6 seats), and Hillary did win the popular vote, so I wouldn’t exactly say they’re on life support yet.
In all this discussion about VOTE FRAUD, many are missing the point. The fraud may not have had a large effect on the Presidential Election, but it is very likely to have had a major effort on all other offices.
A thousand votes amongst tens of millions of votes is one thing, but a thousand votes in the election of a Mayor or Senator where the total votes are only two thousand does.
How did that go????
Oh yeah,
“And the beat goes on ....”
