In reply to the discussion: Who caused Dems to lose the House in 2010? You did. [View all]last1standing
(11,709 posts)64. Thanks, that's exactly it.
I'm not trying to say that we need to all walk in lockstep to whatever the party wants, but this is one of those times when we all agree and those posters trying to divide us now are working for republicans. There's no nicer way to say it.

The writer, not the readers, is always to blame. You put your desire to snark ahead

Maybe *YOU* did, but I didn't. I voted, just as I've voted in every single election since 1970.

It seems there are a lot of people who are faultless for 2010 and will be blameless in 2014 as well.
