So, for all the Democrats’ victories and less-than-expected defeats, they still trail RepubliKKKlans in total votes by a not insignificant number. This is sort of the reverse problem of presidential elections where the Democratic presidential candidate always gets more votes than the RepubliKKKlan yokel, yet the Democrat loses. While in this case of the misterms, RepubliKKKlans won the House and could not retake the Senate. Nonetheless, in a country where there are more Democratic and Democratic-leaning Independent voters, we still fall short when it comes to showing up to vote during off-year elections. Some things never change, no matter how excited the populace is or dire the situation. In this case, my prediction was spot on: The typical apathy of Americans expressed itself in the usual way. The only difference is that the election results could have been worse.
Yet! Yet, it seems Democrats are spiking the ball, which is another predictable reaction. They are celebrating the fact that their defeats in the House were not as crushing as expected. Leave it to Democrats to interpret a “miner” loss as a victory. How very Democratic of them. How very participation trophy of them. Last I checked, a loss is a loss is a loss. And just wait until the RepubliKKKlans get the gavels of House committees. That will be a mess, but it may actually be chaos that Americans need to witness. That is if they care enough because do not forget: Americans voted for and wanted the spectacle that is about to descend upon the House. Democrats still need to wake the f*** up. I don’t care about oh-so-close losses. They are losses. It’s not winning! Welcome to stupid America, where “it could have been worse” is the motto of Democrats! Fan-f***ing-tastic.
