Democrats Are Freaking Out After An Absolutely Disastrous Election Night

You guys on the left are a hoot.
If the Dims had retained the Senate and taken back the House, you would be celebrating like there's no tomorrow.
No one is buying your act that this election was no big deal.

Of course the Left would be celebrating.

Of course this election is a big deal: don't believe that it isn't, DD.

The bigger deal is that Mitch and John don't have to, and won't, listen to any silly ideas from the Far Right. They are fully aware that the social con fascist, Cruz, is a danger to all of America.
 
Wait until more of obamacare kicks in, in January, and Americans feel that pain. Wait until some good bipartisan bills start hitting the kenyan's desk and he starts vetoing them. Wait until he attempts to go ahead with a lawless abuse of executive power and grant amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens... and who knows what else. Barry is a narcissistic, megalomaniac, ideologue. He can't help himself. He can't bare to think that he is now virtually powerless and not the center of the universe. During the next two years he will DECIMATE what's left of the democrat party. They won't have a PRAYER come 2016 for the white house.

I want Trey Gowdy as the next AG.

We now know any fool can be President, or AG for that matter, but we need a bulldog with teeth in the AG's office prosecuting and jailing these bastards in the WH.

Sounds good to me too. VP can just as easily be Jeff Sessions, or Mike Lee, or Alan West... the list of excellent, conservative patriots is long. Republicans have a great field to chose from. The democrats... well... they don't even have anything at the bottom of the barrel to scrape.

I can't back Cruz and watch the Dems win again.

Nor Alan West.

We need a good, successful R governor from the heartland to run with a known VP candidate that is NOT picked as a token, and considered only for race, gender or sexual orientation.

If Obama ends up pushing some form of amnesty, McConnel and Boehner are going to be hearing from those people with the "silly" ideas, and it's going to be a loud message.

I was just so certain all those illegals would override the GOP votes along with all the paid welfare queens that all vote democratic...party,,what was that all lies and distraction from the right?

Not to mention all the people that vote to a considerable amount of outrage from the right saying fraud over and over from the democrat voters?
 
It pains me to see Dimocrats so upset. I will have another difficult night of sleeping.

Democrats knew they were in trouble on election night Tuesday when a Virginia Senate seat that was expected to be a blowout victory began to come in much closer than expected.
"When you're cheering for an eke-out win in Virginia, it's not going to be a good night," one Democratic strategist told Business Insider.
Another Democratic insider summed up his impression of the evening's results in a blunt text message: "Fucking. Bloodbath."
In almost every sense, the midterm elections were a disaster for the Democratic Party. The Democrats lost their majority in the US Senate, and the final results were shaping up to be close to the worst-case scenario for Democrats in which Republicans would swing eight or nine seats.
In addition to the Senate majority, Democrats were badly beaten further down the ballot. They lost key gubernatorial battles — some in strongholds and others in key targets for pickups. And they were further walloped in the House of Representatives, where Republicans are now on track to have the party's largest majority since 1928 for the final two years of President Barack Obama's term.
Republicans were gleeful.
"Feel like we're surfing at the moment," one Republican official told Business Insider, playing off the theme of a GOP "wave" election.
Democrats who spoke to us also described the results in nautical terms, but they saw it as a natural disaster rather than a day at the beach.
"No one expected the tsunami in 2014," a Democratic operative said.
The operative pointed to the fact election forecaster Nate Silver's model initially didn't make dire predictions for Democrats as evidence "there was literally no indication of this."
"Look at Nate Silver's stuff. Not that he's a god, but he aggregates all the polls," the operative said. "I'm honestly in shock."
The Democratic insider who described election night as a "bloodbath" also used the tidal-wave metaphor — and that person laid blame for the wipeout squarely at Obama's feet.
"This is a tsunami. Heads will roll at 1600. And if they don't, shame," the insider said, adding: "The president has 60 days to clean house, regrow his spine, and lay out an aggressive, centrist agenda. If he fails at any of those, he might as well just start writing his memoir."
A national Democratic operative from the liberal wing of the party echoed the idea Obama was personally to blame for the party's losses Tuesday night. The operative also slammed any colleagues who might try to defend the president.
"Democratic operatives who refuse to acknowledge this is the White House's fault are out of their f------ minds," the operative said. "These operatives who don't understand that the White House fucked up are the same hacks who overcharge House and Senate candidates for shitty consulting work and help lose elections year after year."
The operative also said Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid hurt the party by delaying ambitious action on immigration and other hot-button issues to protect incumbent senators in southern states.
"It also doesn't help that Dems completely broke their promise to enact immigration reform. Reid's strategy of 'no big bills' this year that could protect [Arkansas Sen. Mark] Pryor, [North Carolina Sen. Kay] Hagan, and [Louisiana Sen. Mary] Landrieu obviously backfired," the operative said. "They lost anyway, and we pissed off our base at the same time."
According to the insider, Democratic pollsters traced the origins of Tuesday night's Republican victories to Obama's infamous late August news conference in which he was asked about his plans for dealing with the jihadist group Islamic State (also known as ISIS) and declared "We don't have a strategy yet."
"[We have] now heard from multiple pollsters that the bottom fell out when the president said he didn't have a plan to deal with ISIS," the insider said. "Reinforced growing belief that it was a rudderless ship, and then Ebola struck."
On election night, Democrats' Senate problems began in Virginia, where incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Warner was staving off a challenge from Republican Ed Gillespie that was much stronger than expected. Most outlets still had not called the race by night's end, though Warner had jumped to a lead of a few thousand votes.
"Didn't expect this," one Democratic strategist texted Business Insider as the race remained tight as the night went on.
In the Senate battle, Democrats lost seats to Republicans in North Carolina, West Virginia, Montana, South Dakota, Arkansas, Iowa, and Colorado — giving the party a 52-45 majority. The results yet to be called include Alaska and Louisiana, where a runoff will be held next month and polls show Republicans are favored to make another pickup.
But perhaps more sobering for Democratic officials were gubernatorial races. Their candidates lost in toss-up states like Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Maine, and Florida, all of which had highly vulnerable Republican incumbents. The GOP also took control of the state houses in the Democratic strongholds of Illinois and Massachusetts.

Well, the smarter thing is for them to shitcan their strategists and listen to the people.

And the Democrat voters can pay attention to the legislation instead of reacting to every faux news show.

There's no "if" about it. The Democrats acted like it was the second coming of Christ when they took the House and Senate in 2006. There was no "the party in power always loses in the midterms" justification. Turnout in 2006 was low too.

Sure we would be celebrating. That would be a change that would have made a difference. Getting rid of the crazy supermajority in the house would allow real things to be done. You already had all the power in the house, so a few more teabaggers there doesn't change a thing. The senate didn't have a supermajority, and still doesn't so that won't change much. According to historic precedent, Repubes not taking the senate would have been worthy of ridicule. I know you want the left to be devastated like you were when Obama one, but this little election just isn't as important as that one was.
