GOP Election Wins All Part of Democrats' "Cunning Plan"

The loss of two Democratic Governors in yesterday's elections might be seen as a referendum on President Obama. But that's not how Democratic pundits are taking it. In fact, they have been able to find many positives out of the apparent rise in Republican fortunes:

  • It was 'Opposite Day' in New Jersey and Virginia. Didn't everyone know that?
  • Losing those two states was always part of the plan for re-election in 2012.
  • So many Democrats are training for The Vancouver Winter Olympics, there was no time for campaigning.
  • You've heard of 'Rope-a-Dope'? This was "Vote-a-GOP-Dope'.
  • Since Halloween, both Democratic campaigns were still in the biggest sugar crash ever.
  • We learned a ton from Palin's robo-calls. We'll also be annoying voters at supper time in 2012, just you watch.
  • So many people were out stimulating the economy, they didn't have time to vote.
  • What's teh big deal? Is New Jersey even a real state?
  • We'll get back to focusing on politics after the World Series.
  • This is just more post-Bush backlash. Don't ask me to explain how. It just was alright? This press conference is over. Seacrest Out!

I don't think I could take another Republican takeover. They'll start handing out credit cards to my dogs. Maybe even allow them a mortgage. Then start a few more wars.

Maybe we shold just start over with brand new parties, multiple ones like in Canada...

Oh how I love this post.

I'm also sure that most everyone that voted was racist too.

No cleavage pics this post? What's up with that?

Pseudonymous High School Teacher: Maybe you should, seriously. But this will hardly change any time soon. What is a point of democracy if there are only two wrong options for you?

Anyway, I've read a kind of funny article about the elections today - it said that 19% of voters in New Jersey claim that it was Obama's visit that helped them decide to vote for the Democrats, while 19% claimed that Obama's visit convinced them to vote for the Republicans.

Maybe the New Jersey Housewives had something to do with it??

The amazing part of the plan would be that there actually was a plan. It seems as if they are all just guessing now.

Ed A: Change? I have some in my pocket.

PHST: Right, because minority governments are so effective (said sarcastically).

tammy: And the people who didn't vote chose to abstain because of racism too.

Come back tomorrow for lots of cleavage on Demotivational Friday.

LIiC: I hear Rosie O'Donnel's visit was more influential.

Cocette: Do those "Housewives" have any time to think about politics?

J in the D: Of course there was a plan. It was written on the back of Denny's placemat.
