3. "Never f*cking mind" is my stance
 We did the best we could but we progressives don't matter. There si no place at the table for us. So never f*cking mind.
 

You seem to "get it"...now just send the check in.

I could just go back to when I was young and didn't pay attention to politics except that I was a Democrat so when I heard the Democrat won I would be happy but didn't really pay attention beyond that.

This is heartbreaking to see we win everything in 2008 and then we don't get shit out of it.

And it is the media and the Democratic leadership that I am angry at.

"This was a referendum on the Obama agenda"....bullshit. This was a senate race where Republicans managed to get high enough turnout of their people to manage a win.

It was not a referendum on health care and it does not mean doom for Obama and the Dems.

Sadly, they are seemingly trying to doom themselves by refusing to lead and allowing the minority party to set the agenda.

What makes me really angry is that when the Repugs were in the majority, they rammed anything they wanted down the throats of the minority and the Dems think that asking nicely is the way to get things done. Someone needs to grow a spine and start getting the people's business done or we will have lost our opportunity.

Sounds like this DUmpmonkey is in the "Charlie Brown" stage of grief.

Then why did a big chunck of registered dems A) turn out, and B) vote for Brown?

I'm at the happy joy joy stage.
DUmmies got disappointed and more importantly a clear message has been sent to lord zero, the dims and the GOP. I just hope the GOP is listening this time and runs as a conservative party in nov.

I hope they just stay there in their grief, and become more and more apathetic.  That would be cool.  Cheetoes anyone?

The DUmmies are not being honest with themselves.  They are in a perpetual state of denial and anger.  They still can't get over the 2000 and 2004 Presidential elections.

Nor the 1980, 1984, and 88 elections. Hell the goons swear Nixon stole the 72 election come to think of it.

Ralph, in the DUmmies' defense, can you really tell when you're in a state of denial?

1968 - Pukes lied about Happy Humphrey, disrespected TomInTib, stole election
1972 - Pukes lied about McGovern, planted mentally ill VP nominee on dem ticket, stole 49 states
1976 - Honest election, although Pukes stole 27 states
1980 - Pukes lied about Jimmuh, stole 44 states
1984 - Pukes lied about Mondale, stole 49 states
1988 - Pukes lied about Willie Horton, sabotaged tank helmet, stole election
1992 - Honest election
1994 - Pukes stole control of Congress
1996 - Honest election
2000 - Pukes stole Florida, prepared to MIHOP, wingnut Supreme Court stole election
2004 - Pukes seared lies into Swiftboat memories, tortured voters, stole election
2006 - Honest election
2008 - Honest election
2010 - Pukes already preparing to steal election in November
So, we only have honest elections about a third of the time. Can you blame the DUmmies for being angry?
