I see a lot of threads about how Texas is turning blue, Florida is is becoming blue, Dems can now compete in Georgia, Cali is a solid blue state, etc.
Its all nonsense, and yes, on the other side, I will admit that maybe we are making too much of retaining the Senate in a year with such structural advantages. The fact is, we have two parties in America, people are always unhappy, and the unhappy have to have somewhere to go, so the other guys are almost always going to get a chance.
On the rare occasions when a party does become extinct, like the Whigs, then they re-organize as a slightly different party, which is basically how the Republicans were formed. It is the dialectical nature of America.
Americans mostly just look at it as "let's give the other thieves a chance." So contratualtions on getting half the legislative branch back.
Both sides are confident in their long term prospects. Cali is definately turning more blue becaue they have chased out all of the middle class, and we are left with government dependent poor and rich techies with noblesse oblige I feel that now that they have a veto-proof majority, they will overreach and alienate enough voters so the GOP makes a comeback. But even if I am wrong, and even if Texas is competative, we are now competitive in the midwest, which we were not for a long time.
You Dems think that you have changed America by flooding it with immigrants who can be turned into dependent voters and who have children who are the same. America has been flooded before, and for the same reasons. We always reach a new normal of enfranchised, property owning citizenry who vote against government thievery. It think you have a temendous SHORT TERM advantage, and again, contratulations, but what you may not understand is that illegal immigration peaked eighteen years ago, and that spiggot is drying up. We will normalize things, and you will not have the base to continue the cycle. Also, structural forces favor us as Western civilization runs out of money and has to downsize on socialism.
So, basically what I am saying is, let's move on and let the side with the better ideas win.
Congratulations, and peace.
