2014 Will Be A VERY Bad Year For The Democrats.

84. All those extra people that came out to specifically vote for Obama won't be there.

The minorities and young voters. Just like in 2010. That's the real problem, Democrats do not turn out in the mids like they do for Presidential elections and the Republicans come out the same for every election.

Unless the President and his team can convince those strict Obama voters to come out and vote for him "one last time" you can forget about it. The House is nearly impossible to get even with that boost and the Senate, unless the Republicans do the whole "run an absolutely insane person" thing again is probably lost as well.

That's the way it is and really, it's the price of being such spineless cowards in '09 when we could have drastically changed the direction of the country. Weak leadership and corporate sell outs in the Democratic Party set up this current situation. A continued slow but sure movement to the right, same as it's been for thirty years.

Gun control was a total waste of political capital. Particularly when you consider there was never a chance for anything meaningful to pass.
