I'm watching Sharpton's show.

I understand that as I hold my beliefs and I inherently believe my side is right, I would like to think that I have some grasp on reality. It has been a rough several years for Republicans and for conservatism in general. When we have taken it on the chin I knew why we had taken it on the chin and it was because the electorate rejected Republicans and their ideas at that time.

The amount of delusional ideation that I am seeing on this show is to the point that it is not so much comical but very discouraging. They either don't get it or they get it and choose to overtly lie to their audience. You have one guest saying that last night was not a rejection of Obama or the Democrats but rather a rejection of Washington in general and a sign that people are in discontent over the lack of action in the government. The next segment is about whether the Democrats made a huge mistake by attempting to distance themselves from Obama. Yes, this was a segment.

Everywhere I have looked today, all I have seen is denial. There is no consideration on the part of Democrats that perhaps their ideas in some way created a mess that the electorate found untenable. They will not do one pure second of soul-searching with regards to whether their ideas need adjusting or reconsideration. They only appear to delude themselves about what happened last night and go full steam ahead.

I have no doubt that the Democrats will win in the end. This was a victory by the Republicans that might curb for a certain amount of time the more destructive policies of the Democrats. I honestly believe that this is one of the main reasons that the Democrats feel no pressure to Consider the fact that their policies are not working and the electorate despite its shortcomings, recognized this at least last night. The Democrats realize that demographics will cause the electorate to come to them regardless of what they do via inpenetrable voting blocks.
