In 1994, when the Republicans took the House and Senate from the Democrats for the first time in a half-century, President Clinton announced that the end of big government had arrived. President Obama loses the Senate and he announces that the end of elections has arrived &#8211; he claimed that the people who didn&#8217;t show up to vote wield more weight in his decision process than those who did let their voices known. <\/p>\n<p>The LA Times is having trouble deciding what the elections results meant;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>So this year\u2019s GOP surge was more than a ripple, but not quite a tsunami. And that makes it a little harder to understand exactly what voters were trying to say.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The President&#8217;s advisers tell the media at every opportunity that if only more Democrats had allowed the President to campaign for them, more of them would have won their contests. You know, despite evidence to the contrary. The New Republic says that nothing was repudiated in the election, only that the Democrats fielded bad candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic Underground members are on suicide watch. One resident of Massachusetts threatened to leave that recently reddened state and move to Vermont to be close to Communist Senator Bernie Sanders. And, oh, yeah, the liberals are over there complaining that Obama is too conservative for their tastes. If he was more liberal, he wouldn&#8217;t have lost the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>Barely 18-year-old conservative Saira Blair won her seat in the West Virginia House of Delegates from her WVU dorm room and the <a href=\"http:\/\/twitchy.com\/2014\/11\/05\/libs-are-trashing-saira-blair-an-18-year-old-republican-who-just-won-a-seat-in-the-west-virginia-legislature\/\">libs lost their stupid minds<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So look, if you think anything will change in the way this country is run as a result of this election, I&#8217;d like to disabuse you of that notion. We don&#8217;t have a leader in the White House, we have an ideologue who is deaf and blind to the morass that he and his staff have created. That&#8217;s the way the liberals like him. Only more so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last two days have provided lots of comedy in regards to the election results Tuesday &hellip; <a title=\"Comedy of errors\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=56281\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Comedy of errors<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":38186,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56281","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56281","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=56281"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56281\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/38186"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=56281"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=56281"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=56281"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
