1. Liberal control of the media and academics
2. Voter fraud
3. Our country dominated mostly by takers and stupid people

It defies logic. How did this happen?

People vote by their checkbooks. Financial pain calls for drastic action.

WORKING voters are smart enough to figure out Barry's shite is a trainwreck for this country.

And, no my caps lock didn't get stuck.

But if they liberal media are controlling the sheople and most of them have their checking accounts filled with gov handouts....your checkbook argument doesn't hold water.

This is a dumb post.

1. This is true. To deny that media members are largely liberal and academia is liberal would be asinine.

2. Voter fraud exists but rarely changes results.

3. Well this is undoubtedly true. But plenty of these people vote GOP.

1. Low turnout
2. Things have finally gotten so bad that the media is struggling to spin things positively.
3. Minorities, youth, and single women rarely show up for mid-terms, allowing republicans to generally have the advantage.
4. It's the economy

takes some degree of effort and competency, so yea, there was fraud, but your crowd is largely incompetent and reliant on someone else to do everything for them, including cheat.

It was a midterm election and democrats are lazy and only think voting for the pres-o-dent matters. They are going to dominate the next election though.

What's dumb is the thinking that the country had irrevocably gone Democrat and the litany of excuses including the few I posted.

Why does that even matter if one guy can just vote for them and all of their dead relatives?

True, but at the same time, a good number of "sheople" didn't vote this go around. Also, many moderates who might vote on both sides sided with the Republican this time. For example, look at Mary Landrieu. We are talking about a woman who has held the Senator's spot over here for 18 years. 18!!!! But, she only won the primary as the ONLY Democratic candidate against TWO Republican candidates by 1% of the vote. Why? .....Obamacare..... Here we are incurring $17 trillion in debt, and we pass a bill worth another trillion dollars that DOESN'T WORK. That's why people are upset and voted Republican.....money. When that financial pain hits, that's when a change of heart happens. And thank God it did this past Tuesday!

The stupids don't vote during the mid term, and generally everyone in the country that voted is tired of Obama and the left's direction they are taking us.

Your post isn't as clever as you think it is. Quit patting yourself on the back for a job well done.

Honestly, Americans are pissed off at all politicians right now.

BHO is seen as the head of the country, so his party caught the most blow back for it.

If there were a viable third party, we may have been throwing D's AND R's out of office.

All I'm reading from you is spin to maintain the sheople-taker-fraud narrative while explaining the win.

The people most willing and likely to do such didn't show up? I mean less than 37% of eligible voters bothered voting.
