DANG. The more post-election analysis that comes out, the more I wonder “Why in the world did we all think that Hillary Clinton was ‘Queen Inevitable’?”

To paraphrase one of Barack Obama’s favorite pastors – the Democrats’ chickens are coming home to roost. Also, karma.

Do y’all remember in 2006 when the Democrats won the House and Senate and they were all crowing about how they were Americans’ favorite political party? And then in 2008, they said that the Republicans would never, ever, ever, ever, EVER hold power in the United States again? So they could do whatever they wanted because, mandate?

According to this, some intrepid political junkies have been doing some number crunching and they discovered that not only did the Democrats suffer complete beat-downs in the midterms elections in 2010 and 2014, not only did the Republicans completely eat their lunches in 2016, but over the course of Barack Obama’s ENTIRE presidency – Democrats lost power in 1,030 races. That includes everything from the Senate and House, down to governorships and state legislatures –

There’s one number you will almost never hear: More than 1,030 seats.

That’s the number of spots in state legislatures, governor’s mansions and Congress lost by Democrats during Obama’s presidency.

It’s a statistic that reveals an unexpected twist of the Obama years: The leadership of the one-time community organizer and champion of ground-up politics was rough on the grassroots of his own party. When Obama exits the White House, he’ll leave behind a Democratic Party that languished in his shadow for years and is searching for itself.

Yeah, Dems. The American people TOTALLY love you guys. So much that they booted you out of office over and over and over again.

Basically what happened is that Obama’s victories weren’t victories for the Democrats so much … read more here
