Look at the map mountaineer posted in #7 above.

Of all the states, none has changed as entirely as West Virginia.
From almost completely "blue" in 1992 as 100% red today.

Lando wrote in #11:
LBJ: “I’ll have “them” voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”

Look at Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and up through the Carolinas.
The "black belt" stands out from all "the red".

That whole "browning of America" isn't going quite like they planned.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Twitter thread: It would benefit Democrats greatly to ponder how they got from Bill Clinton’s 1992 map to this week’s, not that they’ll actually do that. I’ll tell them anyway.

I encourage everybody to go to that X link and read the whole thread.  It's good.

To Democrats that thread is as wooden crosses and silver bullets are to Count Dracula!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

An unlikable candidate who was a high ranking member of an unpopular Presidency during a time of bad inflation that basically affected everyone negatively.

Democrats ask: Why didn’t anything work?

What did the Democrats do that they expected to work?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

I don't believe for a moment they are asking that question.  They are planning to obstruct the Trump 2nd term like never before.

They will never admit they did anything wrong.  Watching idiot Bill Maher right now with guests Donna Brazile and Andrew Sullivan.  In listening to Brazile who remains a heavy strategist for the Democommies, she sure sounds like they did nothing wrong.  Sullivan sat there itemizing the things done wrong, and she disagreed with him.

If the Dems are serious about reform of their machine, the first thing they should do is jettison Donna Brazile from the discussions of what next, an individual with zero credibility.  This bimbo should have been tossed to the far corner of no where America and forgotten, and yet she is still a leader of the Democommies.  No mystery here why they perform so poorly when absolute idiots with no credibility, no honor advise them.

C'mon man!
They threw over a billion dollars at the election, as if that would solve the fundamental problems with their positions on what ever issues that were actually voiced: as in be free to kill your baby, anytime.
This was their solution to the economy they had created that made it hard to afford having kids,

well,that and importing millions of people who don't speak the language...

...and blaming everything (when they had been in control for nearly 4 years) on Trump.

Money may talk, but even that was over whelmed by their bullshit, 24/7 on the cable news channels and coming from 'entertainters' and influenzers.

Even poorly educated Americans, especially many without the 'benefit' of college indoctrination, saw through it.
No sale.
