2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumSix Months Ago...
Can you believe it has been six months (half a year) since we celebrated President Obama's re-election? Oh, what a wonderful night that was! After years of the tea party and the right wing throwing everything they had at us, we survived and showed them that they are a minority and are NOT in control of our great country.
The most valuable lesson we learned last Nov. 6 is this: as long as we liberals get out and vote, we cannot be defeated.

Faux News had its viewers convinced that Romney was going to win (shit, Romney didn't even have a concession speech prepared just in case!) and when their fantasy world collided with the real world, they were shellshocked.

2014 is the other sides final stand, and no matter what happens in 2014, imho, 2016 will be a democratic landslide everywhere
