They spent all of there time trying to distance themselves from Obama instead of telling people why they should be in office. Democrats lost because they were babies during the elections, like always. |
LOL yeah, that and the idea of moving back to the center in the OP. (that would be LEFT of Obama)
don't forget, Citizens untined, The SCOTUS strinking down part of the voting rights act and less from this election but still and issure in general in the house, very gerymandred districs in several states, Between those 3 and what you mentioned the democrats were never going to do well in this election. Though I think had they tried to actuall sell there accomplishments the losses won't be so bad. If democratice voters would just remember to show up in the off years.
