Well, except for a booming economy, record low unemployment, a solid foreign policy with a beefed up military to enforce it.
Well, you seem convinced REDSTATEWARD. But then, someone like you wouldn't need convincing.
For voters not completely divorced from reality, Republicans had to run scary commercials shouting "Pelosi!" at the 11th hour in Ohio to keep from losing a House district they have held for 30 years.
We will see how that strategy works out in less red districts in November.
Speaking of the Ohio House District. The democrat’s closing ad acknowledged the GOP attack on Pelosi with the laughable line of We need new leadership in both parties."
He lost.
Oh, Prunella!
The party of stupid
A name given to the GOP by a member of the GOP.
Well earned then and now.
I’ll be glad to review the highlights of elections since 2008 when democrats ruled our world.
You wanna go there?
Sure.
GOP blocks action on climate change. Stupid.
GOP blocks action on immigration. Stupid.
GOP blocks action on fixing health care. Stupid.
GOP blocks action to safeguard voting machines. Stupid.
GOP blocks jobs bill after jobs bill after jobs bill. Stupid.
GOP blocks Supreme Court nomination for no good reason. Stupid.
GOP investigates Clinton's emails every which way, but provides little oversight into Russian voting interference. Stupid.
GOP nominates misogynists, white supremacists, evolution deniers, holocaust deniers, and the like. Stupid.
GOP stops pretending they care about the deficit. Stupid.
GOP stops pretending they care about morality. Stupid.
Red, you act like this is a game to be won or lost and to gloat over when you win.
But these are people's lives being destroyed by your party. This is the world, not even just the country, being put at risk by your short-sighted views of the econonomy and the environment. ("Your" is plural there, in case you were going to insist you had done no such thing.)
Your party's members act, then eventually realize the folly of its actions, then apologize and go the other way, but only in the one area they realized they screwed up. They cannot extrapolate to see how the same flawed reasoning screwed up in other areas.
So, we get this one backing down from opposition to same sex marriage, that one expressing remorse for the treatment of the EPA, and a host of other such things, but they don't trickle down much better than the economy seems to.
And yes, the 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016 elections were very good for your party, overall, even excepting the 2012 presidential election, but you seem to think that means you are winning and it doesn't.
It means you are losing and bragging about it because your myopia prevents you from seeing the costs of what you are doing, in human terms.
I spent several years with you, "taking the high road," painstakingly putting for the evidence of those costs, whether to the poor, the ecology, the vulnerable citizens of the US and the world. You responded to exactly zero of those overtures with anything but disdain and, at best, apathy.
You denied the North Carolina GOP's racism the same way you deny President Trump's, and with as little reason.
You are a dinosaur, but you are intent on making the rest of us dinosaurs with you and it is incredibly sad.
I feel no triumph over the "I told you so" messages you will expect in the future, when the world is burning far worse than it is today. I feel pity for you, but more I feel regret that there has proven to be no way to communicate effectively with you. Even if you were to lose at the ballot box for as long as you have won or more, you would deny there was any underlying cause to it like a failed understanding of the world we are in.
And you will blame the Dems and the scientists and what you call the elites for their failure to save the world, if they do. And if they succeed in saving the world, despite your best efforts, you will be like one of those post-2000 folks who said, "See? I told you there was no problem! You people exaggerated it to make yourselves important."
