Ever since Mr. Barone completely blew his predictions for the elections of 2012, I find I take his words a lot less seriously.

I wish I could have more confidence in his analysis, but he skips some major considerations that heavily favor Democrats, most notably the DNC's massive vote-fraud machine, not to mention how the current regime is using every aspect of the Federal government's power as a bludgeon against the GOP.

The only way a GOP Presidential candidate can win the 2016 election is if he does so by 25+ points (popular) and by a 1984-esque landslide. Anything less will be nullified by the machine you so eloquently describe.

......major considerations that heavily favor Democrats.....
(1) the DNC's massive vote-fraud machine.......
(2) the current regime's using every aspect of Federal govt power to bludgeon the GOP.......

N-i-c-e deconstruction. Two of the vote-crazed Democrats' criminal MO's.....but the most significant.

On the plus side, I do think we have to factor in the huge buildup of anti-Obama sentiment going on throughout the land. I hear a popular parlor game coming out of once-staunch Democrat circles ...... "tying one end of a rubber band to a limo’s rear axle and the other end to Obama’s tongue — then asking him how great he is.” (Ouch...that's gonna smart.)

===========================================

We also need to be aware of the dangerous riptides about to engulf Hillary.

News hound Bob Woodward Definitely Doesn’t Buy Hillary’s Benghazi Denial. Woodward doesn’t believe Hillary's whine that it's all about politics. The reporter known for making news claims there are still “serious, unanswered questions about this.”

Hillary's book stoutly declares that everything there is to know about Benghazi has already been revealed....she is hoping to silence Republicans by charging politics is behind the continuing probe.

Woodward will not be dissuaded. ".....one of the questions I have -- did she keep a diary? Obama confirmed to Woodward that he keeps a diary. Woodward noted. “Ronald Reagan kept a very detailed diary of Iran Contra, and he finally turned it over.”

The veteran Post reporter also knocked Clinton and Obama....... noting it’s not all about partisan politics. “There are facts,” he asserted. “There is neutral inquiry. And there is a way to look at this and get that information and see if there is new information.”

Next thing you know, Bob Woodward will be comparing Benghazi to Watergate.

it also overlooks the fact that enough states are irreversibly blue (at least in the short term).....

And certainly everyone hopes the nation doesn’t suffer disasters like those of 1919 and 1920.

Really! Nothing that happened in either of those years can compare to the disaster we've suffered the last 5-6 years. Not even close.
