The congressional election results really reflect poorly on Obama and the Dems.
Ummmm....
Not in the bluest of the Blue states.
Al Franken retained his senate seat with a rout and Gov. Mark Dayton (who looks like he has the IQ of a turnip) crushed his challenger.
I don't even know why I vote. My guys are never even close.
Yeah, the bluest of blue and the reddest of red states are typically pretty much set in stone.
It's the swing states that get watched and courted by each party as elections approach.
There are more Republicans in the House now than anytime since World War II. And, the Dems lost more Senate seats than were anticipated. To me, that's a general reflection on how citizens feel about the performance of the current administration.
I don't have faith either, Duchess. But, I have a dose of hope. There's been a whole lotta nothing getting done for years now, IMO. If that changes, I think it will be an improvement, regardless of why it changes.
I'm guessing Hillary is less than thrilled this morning. It's gonna be interesting to see how this affects her strategy leading up to 2016. That target on her chest just got a little bigger and there's an elephant on her tail.
