Yeah, by all means let’s not over react to the GOP getting an 80 year high majority in the House, winning the Senate, and winning governorships and legislative seats across the country, all while running some of the craziest candidates we’ve ever seen.

After all, it’s the Republicans who are the crazy ones. Everything on the Dem front is just fine. It will all reverse in two years because …….. why, exactly?

We really don’t have to overreact. That doesn’t mean that everything is fine or that there isn’t work to do. The Democrats got their asses kicked, no doubt, but it was one of the lowest turnouts in 60 years. The party needs to recruit better candidates that will articulate and stand up for core Democratic principles. They need to figure out a better way to motivate Democratic voters. It won’t necessarily be easy but if I felt the way the author of that articles does I’d curl up in a ball and give up.
