3. Red state defense. Mostly.

4. RW domination of Talk Radio, MSM, and Citizens United = More Money to the RW candidates.

It's awful.

5. Dems ran to the right instead of the left

if you are going to lose why not go down fighting instead of hoping we will be seen as just a little better.

6. yep

running away from the president of your own party never works. it only makes you look like you have no principles.

[think]

7. messaging is inconsistent and sucks

The state ballot initiatives for voting on minimum wage are a stellar example .....

8. Expected black votes but distanced themselves from first black president?

[monmouth4]

9. Exactly, you don't run from your black President and then expect black

folks to vote for you. I hope a lesson was learned....

10. They let the repugs control the message.
