Thema: Sobering thoughts for those who favor the Democratic party
A blogger has opined:
We have come a long way in the last twenty months. The President of the United States, his Chief of Staff, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and the Majority Leader in the United States Senate have done for the Republican Party what no Republican could have accomplished. Just as rigor mortis was about to set in, they brought the old corpse back to life. For their efforts on our behalf, we should be forever grateful.
--it's not well understood by Democrats that what has taken place, the demise of their power, was due to their own unpopular policies and arrogant elitist attitudes. The people responded (unlike in the way one uninformed poster here tried to portray it) from the average man up. It is a grassroots movement and it's going to unseat a huge majority of Democrats. It's also targeted Republicans who also, "don't get it."
You would do well to pay attention because your party can never regain power in the same way, unless it makes some serious changes. Republicans can never hold power unless they make some serious changes. It's a double edge sword.
