I said this would happen a few weeks ago when only me and a few others were pleading

for people to take these mid-terms seriously. I was roasted then. I predict I will be roasted now for daring to engage in "I told you so's". Roasted so bad then I deleted the OP because I was being treated so shitty. But, I was right. End of story.

I predicted 52-53 GOP seats, in line with the fivethirtyeight.com projection. Looks like 54 is going to be the final result (with independent/mercenary Angus King changing sides to make an effective 55).

"troll" and "propaganda" were some of the nicer words used in the replies

back and take a long look at what was important to DU during the time we posted our posts. Stupid shit, that's what DU was focused on.

And to all of you who treated me like shit in that thread, I TOLD YOU SO! (I didn't say what I really wanted to say due to the alert brigade that follows me around trying to squelch my voice on these forums, like they did nadin).

The ones responsible know what they said and no one will benefit from repeating nasty words.

My main interest at this point is identifying new leadership to pull us out of the hole. It's time for everyone to wake up to the fact that Obama, Reid, Pelosi and Hoyer are not going to be the ones to provide it.

Also, you are not going to agree with me on anything and you never fail to take the opportunity to disagree with me in the rudest, most disrespectful way possible.

Nothing you say means a damn thing to me.

Maybe you were "treated like shit" for talking about how you couldn't wait to rub this loss in our faces?

to only make happy noises and someone isn't a real Democrat unless they're shouting that we're going to win every race. It's childish nonsense.

you're pissed because everyone wasn't negetive with you? We all lost tonight but you lost a long time ago.
I think you attract what you think about. Me I am hoping for better things to come. You sit and get pissed if it feels right.
