Now that the election is over it is time for 2014.


Seeing how Boner has already thrown down the gauntlet (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/07/john-boehner-obama-victory_n_2086761.html?utm_hp_ref=politics) for more roadblocks tells me that the all the Republicans have to go by the midterms. They have no intention of conceding a loss even though the GOP ticket lost in all their home states.

I sat out this election since I have too many family priorities, but I will be getting involved to make sure no that matter what I can offer it will be to help remove the GOP from our misery.

All I hope is that President Obama doesn't give the GOP one inch. If he does you know they will claim victory.

Onward to 2014.

I really hope that progressive groups and the Dems are gearing up for 2014 to guard the Senate and try and take the House. We (by which I mean the United States and the WORLD). The grassroots have got to get their act together and start operating down ticket if the Dems are going to have a chance of legislating for a progressive agenda between now and 2016.
