A Retired Navy Officer’s Message to Liberals on the Eve of the GOP’s Big Mid-Term Win

Republicans are poised to take the Senate tomorrow, and Democrats are terrified.


I’ve got hundreds of messages here, “Woe woe woe, what are we gonna do, Jim? It’s the end of the world!”


Folks, first of all, nothing’s won until the votes are counted.



And second, political polls don’t measure reality. That’s not their purpose. Polls, especially the ones pushed relentlessly by agenda driven organizations aren’t designed to reflect reality, instead they exist to shape reality by doing exactly what they are doing – i.e., creating a self-fulfilling prophecy through manipulation of your perception.


The bottom line here is this: if you think you’re defeated, if those polls make you think you’re defeated, you are.


If those polls and your sense of defeat coupled to voter intimidation and deliberate attempts at disenfranchisement keep you home tomorrow, then they’ve done exactly what they were designed to do, hand the Senate to Republicans.





If you already think you’re defeated, you are. Republicans will certainly hold the House tomorrow and they very well may take the Senate. That’s how it works. You win some. You lose some.


America lurches back and forth, left and right and left and right again, like a drunk staggering into the future. Sometimes your party and your ideology is going to win, sometimes it isn’t. And it for damned sure won’t if you don’t get out there and vote for it.


But you know what’s going to happen if Republicans do take the Senate tomorrow?


Do you know what’s going to happen if Conservatives control both houses of Congress?


Nothing.


Absolutely nothing.


Literally nothing.


That’s what will happen.


For the next two years.


Nothing.





So, if you think about it, in most regards, down here on the street, it’ll look pretty much the same as the last two years where Congress has accomplished … nothing. Oh, sure, the very first thing Republicans will do is attempt to repeal Obamacare. They have no choice. They’ll have to – they’ve painted themselves into a corner on it.

I've already been saying this in other threads but I agree with him.

The Republicans are called the Party Of Do Nothing because they Do Nothing.

Polls didn't lose the race ... Dimwitocrats lost it for themselves.
