The GOP won because the Obama army that came out in 2008 are not as engaged in politics as they should be. Right wingers vote all the time so it is easy for tea party and GOP candidates. This loss is on the people especially the young and minorities who walked away after 2008 and said "OK go fix it O" the sad part is they will suffer the most once the right wing takes over.

I thought it's because the people are stupid and racist and just don't understand that Obama is trying to do good?

Oh this is on black people especially. See right wingers care more about being in control and nothing is wrong with that so left wingers or what ever else is not right wing needs to wake up or accept what we get. If Obama voters came out like 2008, the GOP and even the governors race in SC would have been different. Oh and thinks for the definition of the tea party since you wanted to go there.

So, you're saying the young and minorities are too lazy and apathetic to vote? And why would these tend to be Obama supporters?????????

Obama said it was because he didn't explain his policies well enough. This after 3 years of being told he is some kind of great communicator.

I wish you people would go ahead and admit it. People don't like the communist, err, I mean democratic agenda they have seen the last 2 years.

He has done nothing I disagree with. Like I said it is the people who voted in 08 and walked away that caused this.

It could be that they are apathetic or maybe politics doesn't matter as much to them. As for the lazy thing whatever makes you feel superior IV

The people that voted in 08 walked away for a reason. The inexperienced community agitator finally had to try and run something and has failed miserably at it.
