Headlines Already Prepared: "GOP Sweep Shows Public Failure of Obama Presidency"

Please don't let the facts sway you --

- Unemployment down.

- Recession averted.

- Dow Jones up.

- 8 Million People with access to Healthcare.

- Equal Rights for LGBT actually happening.

- No nuclear bombs being dropped by crazy Republican idiots.

And so many other things, including two brilliant women on the Supreme Court, the Lily Ledbetter "Equal Pay" Act, and prosecution of different banks for foreclosure fraud, and....

There is still a lot of work left to do, and it is up to us to GO VOTE.

Drag your friends. Drag your family. For the love of AMERICA, please go vote.

They might steal it anyway, but don't make it easy for them.

Please, VOTE!

The media will immediately claim to have known it all along and will cite any number of early indicators that predicted it.

I have never not voted in an election when I've had the chance. Why anybody would stay away from the polls against their own interests baffles me.

... than Congress is, so I don't know where they get that meme. Well, I do, they pluck it out of thin air and/or lean toward the side that they (the M$M) profited more from, thanks to Citizens United.

Bullshit!

This is a success of both media and political propaganda doing their best to demean and destroy a successful President!

The failure lies with the judicial and legislative branches along with dumb as a bag of hammers Americans who believe their crap!

Obama is a success!

That is a few of my family members' only retort when faced with facts. They've abandoned BENGHAZI, whomever that Marine who was arrested in Mexico for crossing the border with guns in his car, Fast and Furious- well that was a dud for them as well, but all they have left to scream about it ABORTION.

Yet we have people who scream that Obama didn't do somethings fast enough.

Our national news organizations will do the bidding of their corporate masters. It's not really a problem for them, they are more than happy to sell out our democracy as long as the price is high enough.

But if Democrats vote - Democrats win.

GOTV!
