At the time of this writing, Republicans have picked up nine seats in the House, pushing them to a muscular 243-seat majority.

For House Speaker John Boehner, that means the bar is set high for legislative accomplishments in the next two years. For the national political landscape, that means a lot of red. Here's the lower chamber of the 114th Congress, in vivid color.

The political struggle has become cities vs. rural areas.

And it doubles as a SHTF map. Stay out of the blue areas.

No. There’s a small blue district in there over downtown Milwaukee.

Makes you feel bad for up-state New Yorkers, down-state Illinoisans, and most of PA, which are overwhelmed by the large, parasitic pockets of AINOs (Americans in Name Only) in their states.

That image needs to be sent to Bonehead and McTurtle every single day for the next 2 years. It should be posted on the desk of every single Republican senator and congressman. They can NEVER be allowed to forget who sent them there and WHY!

I’m so happy to see an almost red Michigan! Detroit is its own special breed of derp.

And look at Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky!

I’m in the little red area in Minnesota. It appears we have more square miles of idiots in blue than any other state in the nation. *sigh*

All that blue on the west coast reinforces why Rush calls it the left coast. The only thing that stops the liberals from going further left on the map is the ocean.

See that little hook at the bottom of the blue in Illinois - it points to the blue in Chicago. If they connect it, we’ll be surrounded!

Unfortunately, liberals and queers have a way of ensconcing themselves in the nicest areas geographically.

I’m surrounded by blue, and honestly wonder why I even bother voting anymore.
