Nov. 2, 2010--A Date Which Will Live in Infamy

November 2, 2010 is a date that will live in infamy and the sad thing is, Democratic voters are ultimately to blame for sitting on their asses that day and not going out to vote in that midterm election.

Had the Democrats kept control of the House of Reps., these partisan, useless hearings on Benghazi (and soon the IRS issue) wouldn't be going on right now (punctuated with breaks to hold another vote to repeal Obamacare).

Trying to reason with Teapublicans is pointless. The only thing you can do is to BEAT them at every election with a massive voter turnout.

What is the national party doing to make sure that the GOTV apparatus we built for the 2012 election will be in place and as active in the 2014 midterms? Are we just going to sit around and let those assholes take the Senate away from us?

but 100% straight democratic voting can cure it in 2014 and
100% straight democratic in 2016 with Hillary leading the way will lead to 110million votes
and 475 electoral votes.

It takes a village to render 3rdparty and fracture obsolete.

let's just do it.
