Obama leaves behind a party that's wounded and lost.....

[MMC]

Yep some of that thar reality.....that the leftness just can't change by mocking Trump. Looks like they will have to blame their Special Man. BO the Peep. :laugh:





The Democrats enjoyed a renaissance last decade, thanks in 2006 to backlash over the presidency of George W. Bush and then the rise of Barack Obama (http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/section/barack-obama). It's basically been downhill ever since. Today in Politico Mag (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/01/democrats-trump-administration-wilderness-comeback-revival-214650), Edward-Isaac Dovere looks at the scale of the desolation:


They were counting on a Clinton win to paper over a deeper rot they've been worrying about—and to buy them some time to start coming up with answers. In other words, it wasn't just Donald Trump (http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/section/donald-trump). Or the Russians. Or James Comey. Or all the problems with how Clinton and her aides ran the campaign. Win or lose, Democrats were facing an existential crisis in the years ahead—the result of years of complacency, ignoring the withering of the grass roots and the state parties, sitting by as Republicans racked up local win after local win....


What's clear from interviews with several dozen top Democratic politicians and operatives at all levels, however, is that there is no comeback strategy—just a collection of half-formed ideas, all of them challenged by reality.


The whole piece is very much worth reading (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/01/democrats-trump-administration-wilderness-comeback-revival-214650) (it also contains some terrific graphics and maps) for some perspective on how bad things are for Democrats right now after a brutal and completely unexpected loss. It's not just that they're out of power — time is also their enemy. If President-elect Trump (http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/section/donald-trump) enjoys even modest success as president in his first two years, Republicans are a decent bet to keep the House and almost a sure bet to hold and even gain in the Senate in the 2018 midterm. And the Democratic Party has only until 2020 to win back enough of a foothold at the state level to avoid having Republicans dominate next decade's redistricting process, which would make the road back to power even steeper and perhaps even longer......snip~

You know its bad for the left when Politico is preaching to their choir. Kind of difficult for the leftness to go after their own. Unless they are illiberals.

[Crepitus]

Why don't you look to your own party and the havoc Cheeto Jesus is and will be wreaking on it.

We can handle ourselves.

[Beevee]

First they weren't for him, then they were.
Then they weren't for him, then they were?
It isn't even necessary to name the party.

And you think we're the ones in trouble?

That would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

When will you start.....you're always whining and crying about those on the Right.

Doesn't look like you can handle it.....that's why you are trying to shut down others from talking about your party. Anything to take the focus off that party of failure.

Its so bad.....you can't even handle other liberals talking about your party. Pointing out those realities that you don't want to face or hear about.

Moreover, when you wake up and figure out.....that there are many that want to see your party destroyed. Let us know you can comprehend at least that much.


Oh and, another illiberal defeated by common sense.

Lol, projection. You are trying to take the focus of the coming disaster by starting threads about Democrats.

[hanger4]

Lol, projection. You are trying to take the focus of the coming disaster by starting threads about Democrats.

But the reality is the Democratic Party has been decimated nation wide these past 8 years.

[stjames1_53]

Lol, projection. You are trying to take the focus of the coming disaster by starting threads about Democrats.
what disaster? Every time we get a new pres, the first four years are a free ride. Even you blamed a lot of stuff on Bush, and so on down the line. Of course he's got major read rework to do, but for the first four years, it's Obama's fault

[stjames1_53]

Just look at the news and look at what $#@!s the left is making of themselves in DC. They cant even handle they lost yet

they tried to pull a "Ferguson" ......217 arrested....that's how you handle rioters

Is that what Trump will say during the impeachment hearings?

The Democratic Party is tearing itself apart. The Schumer mind-set is leading the party to a total crack-up. It doesn't look like they realuze that, but eventually they will.

You guys are mad because it's no fun to troll people who aren't crying.

Are you serious? Please tell me you aren't.

Everyone notice the supposition in this post. The havoc trump "WILL" be wreaking on it. The problem with that it proves how immature and full of shit the left is with this ridiculous lie based protests. :) In the end they will know who the very new president is and the change he will usher in.

First they weren't for him, then they were.
Then they weren't for him, then they were?

Well they werent for Hillary :)

Well, the Democratic Party hasn't handled itself well the past few years.

No one yet knows the impact Trump will or won't have, that's yet to be seen, despite your predictions of doomand gloom.

We do, however, know that the DNC conspired to give Hillary the presidency, cheated Sanders, and could not win against Trump.

You keep saying Trump is so bad, but you don't seem to understand that if he is, indeed, that bad, the Democratic Party must really be hurting.

[stjames1_53]

Is that what Trump will say during the impeachment hearings?

you go first, since I asked first, then I'll answer your question.....what are you going to do if none of this happens? .....every one should have a plan B

[hanger4]

Lol.

You guys are mad because it's no fun to troll people who aren't crying.

As you do the same.

Democrats lost 63 house seats, 11 Senate seats, 13 governorships, and nearly 1,000 state legislator seats.

The GOP now has complete control of the White House, both chambers of Congress, and 33 states have a Republican governor. In 25 of those 33 states, Republicans control the legislature as well. In contrast, there are only five states with complete Democratic control.

Tell us more about those "Good Times" ??

[stjames1_53]

Lol, projection. You are trying to take the focus of the coming disaster by starting threads about Democrats.

if there are bad things coming, it's because Obama has set you up for failure...now you have a chance to take advantage of a good thing...
We're tired of handouts programs.....let's try hand up programs

[MMC]

Lol, projection. You are trying to take the focus of the coming disaster by starting threads about Democrats.
Projection.....don't make laugh so hard. Since I have returned here and even before. I have always focused on the Demo Party. Always showing their failures and why they are the weakness of this country. Just like I do on several other sites. Which you can't miss. The font and same screen name is a certain giveaway.

Now you want to deny reality talking about the coming disaster. The disaster has already began and that's the reality you and your party are facing.

[MMC]

you go first, since I asked first, then I'll answer your question.....what are you going to do if none of this happens? .....every one should have a plan B

Isn't it funny how he says others are projecting and yet here he is hoping on impeachment for Trump. Now that's projecting. :laugh:

[MMC]

Lol.

Lmao.....assuming doesn't help you. Then again trolling those that don't know what they are talking about all the time. Just isn't fun. :grin:

[resister]

Reading is fundamental.

Go back and try again, report to me when you figure out where you went wrong.
