Historically, though, the party in power always loses seats in the mid-terms.
The problem is that the republicunts will learn the wrong message from this, as they did in 2010. In 2 years there will be more minority voters and fewer angry old white jesus freaks. In 4 years those numbers will have doubled.
The GOPricks may gain seats in a mid-term because people do not vote in the same numbers as they do in a presidential election but that will merely encourage them to name another fascist cocksucker for president in 2016... and they will get their asses kicked again.
The only way democrats can win as big as they did in ellecting Obama both times is to use the same tactics midterm. The republicans are no slouches in selling guff, and they will walk up to you and convince you they are your friend with one arm around your shoulder while lifting your wallet out of your back pocket, shake your hand while removing your watch.
I agree that this SECOND ellection of the SAME person should wake up the public that this was not racial or a fluke. But midterms are a goldmine for Republicans, and if we do not take the same effort we did in this national ellection, big money will continue its satus qoe it has mainained for the past 30 years.
