Social issues don't win. The GOP has focused on them and they lost. The Democrats focused in them in this election and they lost.

What wins?

Pointing fingers at the President.

That was the platform in 2014. I didn't hear any reforms, proposals, anything. Just:

"Do you want more of the Obama economy?"
"Do you want more Obamacare?"
"Do you want more Obaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaama?

Interesting that those claiming racism incessantly base their claim in large part on an argument that Obama and his party have done such a great job improving our economy that only a racist could be so ungrateful as to vote against them.

If that’s so, why did the Democrats focus their entire campaign, nationally and locally, on abortion rights and the “threatened” rights of African-Americans, instead of touting the recovery? Bad strategy or because most people have seen no recovery at all, and his team knows that is because they’ve been cooking the books?

I guess the answer was a resounding "NO!"

You and your failed President LOST. Maybe you should try and figure out why instead of bleating out the same nonsense that made you lose.

If this was the case (and it wasn't except to extremist democrats) it would still not matter. You divine leader lost and took his party down with him. To quote your beloved leader, elections have consequences and you lost.

They win sometimes, or at least have heavy influence. 2012 anyone?

Yet you found no issue with Obama pointing at Booooooooooosh and republicans. My bad, Obama is black and we are expected to give him a pass.
