I can't even fathom how left-wing you must think that is, though it's fun guessing.

Seriously. It's hilarious seeing this attitude from conservatives that the real lesson today is that liberals need to tack to the right to meet where the "real" country is, rather than it being a rather sound rebuttal of the far-right.
Not only did they lose, but they're actively alienating future demographics. Quote, 'We're not generating enough angry white guys.' A rigid Republican party would only work itself into insignificance. I don't think that'll happen in the long run, but damned if some won't try.
Nikkoru:
I honestly don't know what the Republicans expect, It's simple demographics I could have done in elementary school. You could claim that Blacks, Hispanics, and Women are being unfair to the Republicans, but why? Why would you vote for a party which casually ignores you all the time in every conceivable way? When they do condescend to speak with them, it's usually to deliver some awkward backhanded blow only to be retracted later or obfuscated with bullshit.
There aren't enough "undecided" and "independent" voters that Republicans can turn anymore to make up for their starting weakness -- the 47% Romney was talking about, it's actually a little more than that and they're spread out in the right places now for electoral math -- no amount of appealing to the base and "get-out-the-vote" measures will ever be sufficient for Republicans again. If you've given up on these people, you've given up on the Presidency. Bush had an incredible chance with immigration legislation, and the rest of his party kicked the shit out of 'im as the short-sighted assholes they are.
Obama got over 70% of the Latinos, and he'll work hard to ensure those numbers increase and lock into Democratic blue.
What's more, the Democrats will probably not face racist subtext with their next candidate, the White vote will be closer to Clinton levels.
Thus far-right = impotent.
AceHigh:
America loves to criticize countries that have election results like 80 - 20 or similar because as they claim "one side got unnaturally many votes" and etc...
However seeing this stupid 50 - 49 result every fucking time in US election concludes that US election is rigged. There is nothing natural about these results. It seems like the whole thing was manipulated by news network because they benefit from such close elections, which provide thrilling newsflashes for them.
Also looking at the popular vote that are obviously manipulated is one thing, but comparing it to the electoral result disgusts me even more. USA is a dictatorship with no shred of democracy in it.
Also jaybug is whiny bitch complaining about some of the lowest taxes in the industrial world.
