My goodness. Can't even wait for the defeats to be official, before the excuse making, blaming begins. It is fun to watch, though. Wednesday and the days after we will see the following articles, new stories.

1- Can't wait for the end of the Democrat Party articles to begin.

2 - Or, the where did the Democrat leadership go wrong.

3 - Or, the micro-analysis of the impact on traditional demographic Democrat turnout that voter suppression efforts had.

4 - Maybe, even an OpEd of the needed shakeup in Democrat leadership.

5 - Gosh, perhaps the clarion call for more hard hitting character assassination tactics will be broadcast.

6 - How about, it really was a lesser of two evils, hold nose election.

7 - There will be more it was a protest against Obama vote, as opposed to a vote for conservative candidates.

8 - Let us not forget there is still life in those evil Koch Btrs articles.

9 - Will those evil, puppy kicking, racists, bigoted, foul smelling compromise with the wonderful, all knowing, omnipotent, Mr President articles.

10 - There may even be pieces about the shortness of the alleged conservative victory, after all, Hil is ust around the corner.

There have to be more that I missed. But, all in all, this is fun spectator sport.

Off season elections. The incumbent party typically loses seats. No excuses needed. The dems will eat humble pie today, and the GOP will have their azzes handed to them in 2016.

No excuses needed. Liberal media has been predicting since 2012 that this would be a down year for Ds, because they had more seats to defend than the Rs did in the midterm elections. The goal was always to limit the losses, not make significant gains.

This is true, there will be no surprises for the Dems tomorrow. We don't count on unskewed polls to give us pretend results because we can't deal with reality.

Got it.

11. We knew it would happen, so we took defensive action to limit our losses. We didn't really put much effort into the 2014 midterms.
Quote:
GOP and conservative-leaning candidates, party committees and outside groups will spend at least $1.92 billion, compared to at least $1.76 billion their rivals on the Democratic and liberal-leaning side will spend.
12. This election did not matter. 2016 is what counts, because our leaders can just executive action whatever we want. No need to listen to the citizens of this country

Thanks guys, gals, or its. Two clever suggestions.
