When it comes to elections... the only thing Obama was good at doing was getting himself re-elected. He had no coat tails and never did. In fact, he had the opposite of coat tails.

NOT including the results of the election on Tuesday... here is the damage done by Obama to democrats.

Since 2008 and prior to the election this past week, the democrats have lost 910 legislative seats across the U.S. The Republicans had 7,383 legislative seats across the U.S. Don't have the results from Tuesday calculated but the carnage for the democrats across the U.S. was significant and will likely push the number of legislative seats lost upwards of 1000 democrats. Keep in mind that this represents a total swing of almost 2000 legislative positions. A YUGE number.

The democratic policies have been repeatedly rejected over the last 8 years in districts, states, etc... These are the numbers that are behind the Trump win this past Tuesday.

Obama and his policies have done major damage to the democrats despite what CNN, MSNBC, NBC, etc... are saying. He was a one man wrecking ball inside the party.

A high price to pay just so they could say they had the first black president.

These 50% + approval ratings are all smoke and mirrors.

He's been a shitty President. The shittiest since Carter. These numbers and Tuesday night bear that out.

That's because Obama was a fantastic campaigner but his policies totally blew donkey balls.

People could look past his polices because he was so persuasive and charismatic. However politicians without the same level of charisma stood no chance trying to sell those shitty policies.

Ohio Republicans gained a seat in both the Ohio House and Senate. They lead 66-33 in the house.

Democrats actually controlled the House from 2008-2010 when Obama won the presidency.
