An interesting analysis from the other side '5 take-aways'

Don't get me wrong, I'm as P'O'd as anyone here. But this is a pretty well written piece from a conservative website (Catholic Vote) with their take away of why they won; I think some of the themes in here have legs, at least amongst our opposition.

What do others say here?

As Chuck Todd crowed - It's not their job to correct Republican lies.

Since Dems are too cowardly to do it, I think the RepubliCONS will manage it.

It should have been one of his 5 points.

A miserly midterm election, that RepubliCONS usually gerrymander for a win anyway, is really a sad gloating point. Even Catholics can be stupid about the obvious.
