Why shouldn't they? This is another easily won election that we lost because of lack of interest. We are still needing 18 seats to take back the House which is tough especially when we lose a seat that was supposed to be ours. They focused on President Obama and Health care. You would have thought that Democrats would have shown up in droves to insure that we won this for the President and ACA. Now the wacky Republicans believe that America wants to get rid of Obamacare….yes it is only one local house seat but it was a test for ACA. We screwed up this one!
