Maddow Blasts Dems For Allowing GOP to Control 30 States; ‘Do You Guys Have a Catch-Up Plan?’

**SNIP**

At that point, the liberal host held little back in showing her disapproval for Democrats falling remarkably short at the state level:

Complete Republican legislative control in 30 states and we've only got 50 states. Elections, consequences. Democrats, do you guys have a catch-up plan for the states here or what? Because the trend here is obliterating.

Earlier, Maddow erroneously put the measly number of state legislatures run by Democrats at eight – “Oregon, California, Hawaii, Illinois, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware” when it’s really nine as Maryland’s legislatures remains controlled by Democrats (but will have a Republican Governor with Larry Hogan’s upset on Tuesday).

I don’t know if she ever had to do a productive job for a living.

C'mon. She's a Rhodes scholar. I'm sure she could do something. Just give me a little more time to think.

Sure hate to see Mr Maddow get upset.
He seems like such a fine, level-headed
young man.

“C’mon. She’s a Rhodes scholar........”

I think she is closer to being a road apple.

When the Dems are winning it’s “us”. When the Dems are losing it’s “you guys over there”.

Why do people on the right side of history need a catch up plan?

In Colorado, the Democrats used to own both houses; now its split party control - Democratic House and GOP Senate.

No bad for someone who used to be the gardener to the older woman who is her partner. I don’t know if they “married.”

I think she is invited to the University of Arizona to speak soon. I can’t imagine why anyone would ask her.

Did the CO House officially stay RAT? Last I saw there were enough too-close-to-call districts to leave its control in doubt.

Maddow didn’t forget about just MD; NJ and MA also have both houses under RAT control. So the RATs control 11 state legislatures to 30 for the GOP.(8 have split control, and NE is non-partisan).
