What will their excuse be?

I am looking forward to hear the "analysis" from the main stream media that will explain the big losses for the Democrats tomorrow. What will it be?

Maybe, it will just be another temper tantrum from the people like the famous explanaiton of 1994. You know, the people are angry and are behaving irrationally. Obviously, no one in his right mind could actually vote Republican; everyone knows that!

Maybe it will be an outburst of racism and xenophobia. Republicans don't care about blacks and they hate all Latinos. Candidates like Marco Rubio and Alan West are obviously mentally deranged since they vote against the interests of their ethnic or racial group. Obviously, no one in his right mind could actually vote Republican; everyone knows that!

Maybe it will be the enormous sums of foreign money that the republicans used to buy the election. After all, just because the Democrats outspent the Republicans by about 50%, it doesn't mean that the Republicans did not buy the election. They must have. Obviously, no one in his right mind could actually vote Republican; everyone knows that! The voters must have been paid off.

Maybe the Republicans surpressed voter turnout so that the few people who did vote were able to put the republcians into office. Those Republicans are always trying to intimidate their opponents not to vote. Just look at what the New Black Panther Party did iin Philadelphia when they had people with weapons at the polling places. (Oh wait, those were Democrats) Nevertheless, we all know that even though turnout in this election is likely to be higher than any mid term election of the past decade, there was a massive Republican effort to surpress the vote. Obviously, no one in his right mind could actually vote Republican; everyone knows that!

Maybe the vote was really just directed against Washington and the incumbents; Democrats only lost because they had so many more incumbents. some long serving Republican incumbents lost; look at Arlen Specter and Charlie Crist. Oh wait, they left the Republican party, but people still thought of them as Republicans. And just because there is likely to be not a single Republican Senate seat lost and perhaps only one Republican House seat lost, it does not mean that the voters were focused only on the Democrats -- it was all incumbents. Obviously, no one in his right mind could actually vote Republican; everyone knows that!

Maybe the reason for the loss will be local issues in the various states. the fact that those local issues caused the voting to go uniformly in favor of the Republicans across the country was a mere coincidence.

The truth is that the election is a country wide repudiation of the program put in place by Obama, Pelosi and the Obamacrats. While the media may try to cover this up, the people will understand the message. If the Democrats are to recover from this debacle, they better understand the message as well. Should they fail to take the message to heart, they will suffer even worse consequences in 2012.
