Obama Has Decimated His Own Party Unlike Any Other Modern President

And Hillary is running on continuing to build on the Obama legacy.

http://observer.com/2015/11/obama-ha...ern-president/

Quote:
On nearly every level of government, Democrats have lost more seats under Mr. Obama than under any other two-term modern president dating back to Dwight Eisenhower. (This includes the dual presidencies of John F. Kennedy/Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon/Gerald Ford.)

Under Mr. Obama, Democrats have lost 13 net Senate seats, 69 House seats, 11 governorships, a whopping 913 state legislature seats and 30 state legislature chambers, according to analysis from the Washington Post.

That makes Mr. Obama the overseer of the biggest loss in Senate seats, House seats and state legislature seats of any of the past seven two-term presidencies, the second biggest loser of state legislature chambers (Mr. Nixon/Mr. Ford lost 31 to Mr. Obama’s 30) and fourth biggest loser of governorships (tied with Bill Clinton).

Funny what being black will result in. That, and congressional redistricting after the last census.

I think the Tea Bag infused air of Alabama is finally getting to the OP.

I think TJ is devastated. Bernie has an insurmountable task ahead, Hillarybots are gloating here, Trump is finally beginning to fade from Lewandowski's assault charge and his proposal to punish women for obtaining abortion. And worst of all Cruz is leading big in Wisconsin thanks to Scott Walker.

Let's give him a break for he doth not know what he says.

Ain't nothin' insurmountable about it. According to Quinnipiac, Hillary's lead in New York is down to 12% and the LA Times has her up by 11%. The nomination is still Hillary's to lose but it looks like she may indeed be losing it.

Us Moderate Progressives will come out in full force for Hillary when the primary comes to California. We will all be celebrating in my Hillary Comeback Thread!
