Will the Regressives snatch defeat from the jaws of victory thru overreach born of a self delusional explosion of "mandate" entitlement in the resulting gloatfest? Time will tell.

I don't see what anybody is getting all excited about. We've seen this movie before and not really all that long ago.

It was shit.

It was why you ended up with the Democratic victories in '06 and '08.

The only difference is that the GOP is even loonier now than it was then.

Anybody remember my statement when Obama won in '08? "Hold on tight, folks. It's gonna be a bumpy ride!"

The ride aint over yet, Sunshine. Better keep that seatbelt securely fastened.

Hey Pete,

Alan Simpson was just on CNN explaining why the GOP will NOT be repealing Obamacare.

And yet, this is what they have been running on. Already setting themselves up to disappoint their base. And it hasn't even been 24 hours.................

We knew it was coming.

Just like we know what's coming in 2016.

We don't freak out and start screaming about death camps, UN invasions and waves of marauding Black Panthers like some others we know.......

It wasn't that hard to see it coming way back in 2008 when the Dems had a huge year and ran the table and won every single close Senate race in Red States. That meant that six years down the road they would have a tough row to hoe.

On the other hand, 2010 was a huge year for Republicans. Add six years to 2010 and what do you get?

And then in the background that clock on the Demographic time bomb keeps ticking away.

Old white people keep crapping out, while young dark people keep turning 18.

In the long run, you baggers are fucked.

Hey Pete,

If the unemployment rate should drop by .1% between now and Christmas, will it be because the GOP has won the senate and a sign that universal prosperity is on it's way?
