Here may be why the Dems lost:

1. Republican states have Gerrymandered their states so it is near impossible for the Dems to
win.
2. Where that wasn't possible, then they managed to void thousands of votes because
people couldn't get//afford picture ID.
3. Where those weren't allowable, I think they BOUGHT off as many as their crooked
asses could afford (what with so much money from the Koch brothers, and other
billionaires).

If the Dems acted like them, then who and the hell would we vote for?

I don't buy gerrymandering as the reason for last night's results either. It definitely happens, but Hoyt Nov 2014 #2

doesn't have much impact on statewide elections. It does impact local elections and that might have an indirect effect on statewide elections long-term, but it's not the reason for last night.
