Feel bad, let it out. Over the next weeks and months we must sort through this and get ready to move forward.

I don't think I'm going to watch ANYthing political anymore.....gotta get over this....almost as bad as 2000 presidential election. *sigh* It's just they've unleashed the worst possible outcome for the country. I'm just sick. Sick. I'm going to get a drink.

I don't know why but this has made me even more depressed than the 2010 elections. We now see people have bought the libertarian agenda hook line and sinker. How do we regroup and build our base again? It's not fun to admit but the people now hate unions and even their local governments..they love big business. We see this through their votes. It's so depressing to me I could cry. I just do not get it...

it's hard but they are correct. We Democrats have lost the narrative. People no longer believe in our message. We have been consistently behind in polls and lost all of the last few elections..we need to get a winning strategy together soon or we will be irrelevant.

They're correct as they are being reported, but are incomplete. For a good while, Milwaukee was red, probably because the city hadnt been reported yet. Wait for the final tally...it'll be a lot closer.
