Even though we in DU are painted as the fringe we tend to represent the majority
of the Americans.

Add up the people the republicans have pissed off:

gays
women
hispanics
blacks
workers
democrats
environmentalists
people of faith .... who are not wing nuts
students
the unemployed
the under employed
intellectuals
the middle class
people who support the arts

Mitt's "tin ear" as per the Latino vote shows why voter suppression and election
rigging along w/ control of the media has to be part of the republican plan.

sorry to babble

It should be game over not only for the POTUS but for the Congressional races too.
