I think the truth is that the fraudulent voters that vote Democrat didn’t vote in this election. If the Republicans in Congress and the Senate do their job they can keep the fraud out in the next election too.

The fact that Crist even came close is scary.

Its entirely possible that a lot of democrats voted republican this time but that’s just too horrible for the liberals to contemplate.
I know of a couple of first time GOP voters myself.

I wallow in the Schadenfreude. I used to live in Broward County for more than 50 years. It is now a crap hole of illegals, hipsters, rich South Americans, crooked lawyers and raunchy real estate developers. I am so glad that Crist lost because of voter apathy. They don't like you, Charlie...they really don't like you.

Agreed. It’s difficult for them to get the vote factories going in the hood during the less popular mid-terms. Not only that, but it would be more noticeable too.

Their comments made me laugh. Infantile babble as usual. Stupid too. Voting for orange boy is a vote for a backstabber. Old orange boy is running out of political partys.

Obama said make no mistake, his policies were on the ballot.
People voted accordingly...

How in the hell does a newspaper actually allow a headline like that to actually be printed without promptly folding their operations within 24 hours?
It is so obvious that this “we only lost because people didnt vote” meme is going to be the opium that the left is going to snort over the next few weeks to convince them that this was all a fluke.

When voters are so disinterested in the election that they don't vote, I don't blame the voters. It's the candidate's job to get them excited to vote. In this case, I'm glad that Crist didn't make a compelling argument to vote for him.
Frankly, I don't want the voters who don't know the issues voting anyway. I have never worshipped at the idol of full voter participation, unless everyone is voting with reasonable preparation.

But Obama said he knows how the 2/3 that did not show up feels. Do you think they were be called on the carpet the way dem voters were in that NY district that were sent letter, warning them that they knew about their inactivity from the past, and they will be confronted with their voting record for the midterms.

It’s all due to Democrat voter suppression. The Democrats and their policies were so bad they suppressed the vote. What else can we say. Democrats lost the vote of a lot of white folks. I guess they forgot about that demographic. And the “first black president” suppressed the black vote. Problem solved. I love it when lefty heads explode!
