Lest anyone forget, in this era of selective amnesia by the MSM, Obama boldly asserted that his policies were on the ballot (and around the neck of every Democrat candidate), thereby nationalizing House and Senate elections. The Republicans would do well to not lose sight of this fact (or pretend that it never existed), as this is their mandate.

Instead, they ran on the same old progressive idea of community organizing to get out the base. Obama was the past master of this strategy: Energize American voters by contending that we have been separated by race, class and gender; claim that conservatives have been waging pitiless war against blacks, Latinos, gays, women and the poor; and then cobble back together the aroused and aggrieved interests to form a majority.

Excellent synopsis of the "same old, same old."

Wellington was also supposed to have said after Waterloo that it "was a damned close run thing" but Tuesday's midterm election was anything but close. It was however a slaughter which left dead Democrats strewn the across the battlefield reminiscent of the carnage at Waterloo.

The point? Obama has sacrificed his party to his ideology as the litany of failures described by Victor Davis Hanson illustrates. An analysis of Obama's character, his ideology and his narcissism (not to mention his belligerent tone in yesterday's press conference) leads one to no other assumption but that he will continue to sacrifice Democrat party electoral chances to advance his radical socialist/communist ideology.

The media will of course side with Obama as he wages war against the Republican Congress and the Republicans, true to form, will no doubt buckle under the slanders. Much of this could have been avoided if in the contest of 2008 John McCain had not rendered it illegitimate to attack Barack Obama in any way. Today the public would automatically associate Obama's failed policies with Obama's radical ideology. Instead his race continues to provide a buffer behind which the media will try to hide Obama. This election shows that the playbook no longer works to get Democrats elected but it leaves the Republican establishment timorous and unwilling to live up to their campaign promises.

2016 need not be a damned close run thing if Republicans will act like conservatives.

After three elections, voters finally caught on that Obama's faults were not in the stars, but in himself. They apparently tired of the usual distractions from a dismal presidential record.

Obama and the Democrats chose not to defend the administration's record of the last six years

It's indefensible.

If Napoleon had our media the history books today would speak of his smashing victory at Waterloo.

Thinking of what followed Waterloo, St. Helena would be a good place for Obama to go while he writes his memoirs. The only question is—are there any golf courses there?

Obola has a high mortality rate for the careers of Democrat politicians.
