The toe-sucker just can't help himself
and leave it to FOX and Friends to not ask him even once about his hilariously inaccurate prediction that blew up in his face last night
Fox News contributor Dick Morris appeared on Fox & Friends very early Wednesday to weigh in on the previous nights election results. In particular, he was asked whether the re-elected President Barack Obama will do more to reach across the aisle in his second term.
We need somebody who can reach across the aisle, said host Steve Doocy. But from the books Ive read about this administration, Barack Obama in many ways doesnt have a bipartisan [bone] in his body.
Morris agreed, adding however that we need to understand just how weakly this president was re-elected, by the skin of his teeth. The Republican party, he continued, needs to work with Obama when hes positive, but otherwise, we need to stand up against this socialist agenda and stop him from fundamentally changing the United States.
Later, he added that I think that what we have to understand is that this is a president that lost seven points of the mandate that he was elected for in 2008; he won by seven then, he won by one last night. And I think that the Republicans cannot be intimidated, they cant be cowed. Theyve got to stand up and make sure that he does not make permanent these socialist, big government program that hes been pushing since his first term.

"by the skin of his teeth"
Obama won by the exact same margin (320-something) Morris boasted Romney would. And Dick was calling that margin a landslide when he pitched those numbers for Mittens a few days ago.
and more hysterical ranting about 'socialism' that doesn't exist. They never learn.
This craziness doesn't play with the electorate.
Good to see they're already working on giving the Dems another landslide in 2016.

for 2014, today.
The off-year elections are as important as the on-years. 2006 got prepared the way for 2008, 2010 undid a lot of what was won in those.
