I am particularly disappointed about Texas. Democrats led us to believe we are making gains there.

I have to also lay some blame on our clueless Democratic voters who sit out during midterms. Even our leaders appearing every 4 years do not help. For example, Bernie Sanders. He is absent most of the time.

He does his job, has spoken out about voter issues, and makes frequent radio and TV appearances. What more do you want him to be doing that he is not?
