We lost the Virginia governor's race. MSM, "Disaster for the Democrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seriously I would have preferred to win that one but we beat back a challenge for the New Jersey governorship and won many other places.

I think we need to take this election as a warning but we should not throw up our hands in disgust and give up.

If many of us did our jobs as poorly as the main stream media often does we'd be fired.

1. I turned it off within an hour after VA results come in

I will not allow them to make me feel worse by spreading their doom and gloom. I know the future is very bleak but I don’t need to hear gem repeat it over and over.

2. They choose what they want to amplify

and apparently, they all take their marching orders from Faux and OAN.

3. Fox News says Dems are having a meltdown LOL

4. I agree -- sick of this shit -- Repukes lose races and it's "crickets"

from the media.

5. I did not turn on the tube last night or today

I monitored DU and soon enough the writing was on the wall. I can’t face listening to the same postmortems “Democrats in Disarray” by the same bunch of media gasbags who have an overinflated idea of their own importance and expertise.

6. I don't get why the loss, while disappointing, is supposed to portend disaster

for the whole Democratic party all across the country. It's one state, and to quote a cliché, all politics is local. What motivated voters in Virginia might not motivate voters in California or Minnesota or New Mexico. There were many Democratic successes in other states; why are we wailing and rending our garments over one loss in Virginia?
