There are three lessons to take home on this election. First, picking Paul Ryan was a positive but they never turned the wheel on his Medicare talk and budget cuts....I don’t think the public ever got that message. Second, you have no choice....you have to go after the Hispanic vote, and that means passing the Dream Act, and getting Rubio out in front for the 2016 race. Third and final: the whole Democratic vote was based on splitting people up into classes and going after individual classes with perceived attention. Either you find a guy to unite classes or you have to play the same game in the end.

Fool’s gold. ALL of it. The people who run this country aren’t always the ones who show up on camera or sit in DC office buildings. They allow you your injection of electoral heroin, and then they leave you to sweat it out cold turkey because they do not care. They neither feel your pain nor want to.
The ‘they’ control the horizontal and the vertical, and you, my FRiend, are in the Outer Limits.

The dream act and amnesty will not bring hispanics to the GOP. They will kill the GOP.

The hispanics who vote are not interested in those things. They are already legal. They vote democrat because socialism is part of the heritage that they brought from their home countries. There is no such thing as small government conservatism in Mexico. If you look at the people who get elected in Latin America they are all exactly like Obama. They demonize the rich, destroy wealth and then look for scapegoats to justify their failures. Sounds familiar?

There's only one lesson, rinos are losers and the evidence is crystal clear! People for some reason especially on OUR side do not understand conservatism is a winner! You just have to market it right against the negative spin.

You're never going to win agreeing with your opponent more than half the time, and the other half be flip-flop, wishy-washy. The GOP has tried this middle of the road crap 5 out of the last 6 elections and LOST! And the stupid party will DO IT AGAIN!

THAT'S THE ONLY LESSON THAT MATTERS!

Pass the Dream Act (amnesty) and all you will have is a bunch of people who will vote democrat. Mexican-american citizens will recognize conservatism if it is presented to them. But newly-minted illegals will not.

-— Yeah, that’s what democrats do, it’s what they are.

As far as the Dream Act, if we let it happen it is all over. Changing Demographics already are near dooming us and unfortunately, despite their conservative religious views, the vast majority of the hispanic voters believe that the government is the answer to their problems. I think we need to hold our ground on the dream act and in the end Obama will be known as the one that promised them the moon months before an election and then never delivered.

Ultimately, I refuse to draw conclusions based on this election other than it was stolen from us. My vote was destroyed, I know many others that had the same thing happen, who knows how widespread it was ?

"There are three lessons to take home on this election."

Yep:

Number 1: Don't listen to a thing Dick Morris has to say. He made a bunch of money while the monkeys danced to his tune.

Number 2: Don't listen to a thing Karl Rove has to say. He made a bunch of money while the monkeys danced to his tune.

Number 3: Don't listen to any polls because they can be skewed to show something that isn't there at the same time invalidating polls that are spot on.
