In the course of about six hours, what was supposed to be a Republican existential crisis turned into a Republican wave.

What was supposed to be a victory of the coalition of the ascendant became a dispiriting rout of the coalition that didn’t show up.

What was supposed to be the crowning political achievement of Barack Obama’s presidency set the predicate for the unraveling of his legacy.

Since before he was elected president, Obama put down as a marker the transformational example of Ronald Reagan. That entailed moving the political center of gravity of the country in his direction; winning re-election; and cementing his standing by securing a de facto third term for a Democratic successor.

8 years ago, this one Democratic Leftist Political Activists with a blog went on a Crusade; he treated so-called conservative-type icons as irreverently as possible, Bill Maher level.

8 years later, it really comes tumbling down in the most severe manner, it is absolutely amazing.

And I checked his blog yesterday. 

Some are falling back to the Van Jones tactic, "it's a white lash", some are earnest,

Michael Moore's twitter is interesting, anyone can go look that up.

Democrats made the same mistake as the GOP during the Bush years. Since they had the White House, they didn't put enough focus on developing their bench.
