You already has the above control you speak of, You just got the opportunity to lie to America and blame Democrats for your state problems
Hmm, no, that's not what my post was about at all. My post was a look at how thoroughly Democrats got their a$$es kicked this election and how completely they had their a$$es kicked and one reason why they got their a$$es kicked was because they lied about Obamacare.
Your deliberate misrepresentation of my post means Democrats haven't learned a damn thing.
Dockside, you are so right. There are fools and then there are young fools. You clearly are neither.

They had controlled the state Senate with a coalition of GOP members and several conservative Democrats, but now will have outright control
This in an ultra-blue state. The fight in Seattle is not between conservatives and liberals, but between liberals and self-avowed "Marxists," Amid this swell of liberalism the GOP has seized control of the upper body of the state legislature.

Since when do "ultra-blue state" and "no iincome tax" go together?
Republicans already had complete control of 24 States, Democrats only had complete control of 15.
You guys had 28 Governorships and control of 3 more state legislatures.
That means in 28 states you had the Governor+ at least one chamber of the legislature.

In fairness, some states just got a bad shake. Michigan/Detroit failed because of the auto industry decline, not because of Democrat policies. Alternatively though, New Jersey's finances are in terrible shape because of Democrats.
In some instances, blame for your party is warranted.
Likewise goes for Republicans. Mississippi isn't poor because of Republican policies. The causes go back wayyyy before the GOP became the Southern party. Likewise though, you can blame some of the issues Kansas has been having on Brownback.

Your argument is that Democrats got their buts kicked based on losing 2 senate seats in Nevada, 14 House seats in West Virginia , and 13 Seats in the Minnesota House ?
Thats your argument. And that is exactly why i said what i said, you are wrong and you dont even see it.

Thats not really what I was saying.
Republicans Before this election had Control of the Governorship, House and Senate of 24 States
You held the governorship and at least one chamber of Legislature in 27 states.
Do you know how many States Democrats had full control of ????
15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How exactly can it be a revolt of Democratic policies if Democrats dont control the majority of states. heck Minnesota is given as an example in this forum, Mark Dayton won re election by 100,000 votes 6% points to be exact.
The argument that it was a rebuke of Democratic policies doesnt make sense.
