How he marginalized the party.
I used to say in the nineties that the best thing Bill Clinton did was to end the Democrat dominance of Congress. Obama may have finished the job for a while.

No he didn’t marginalize the party. If only he did, but wishful thinking doesn’t change the MTV voter dynamics. The media will continue to push the NARRATIVE and the right will continue to blow the chance to show leadership.
So you think the kids who’ve been lining up to read/watch Hunger Games, Divergent, etc, will be lining up to vote for Big Government?
Even Obama seems to have given up on them, hence his attempt to import millions of new Democrat voters from Mexico.
What the democrats do works because every day we breed more uninformed voters that are force fed the narrative. What the democrats do is blatant and it caught up with them this last election but all they have to do is tone it down a bit, bring in some new faces and do it all over again because it has continued to work for them since the beginning of time.
We need to change the culture which is why they have a lock on both education and the media.
Just because the Democratic Party made some very bad judgments in this last election doesn’t mean that they will continue to do so. Just as the Republican Party has learned important lessons from 2012. Presumably both parties will continue to get better and better at snookering the American people, which is a big relief.
Indeed…just look at Schumer’s self-serving, hypocritical, turn-around regarding Obamacare.
What lessons did the GOP learn from 2012?
I think they were a little better this time on avoiding saying stupid things and message discipline.
I think they ran a very effective campaign. I saw an article somewhere about how the national committee worked overtime keeping dangerous candidates off the ballot. Dangerous meant ones that would reinforce the Democratic talking points. Candidates instead focused on making the Democratic opponents responsible for voting for all of Obama’s unpopular policies.
The Tea Party is still out there, but they’ve learned to sound less crazy.
The tea party got involved but has to learn. It’s not a sprint. It’s a marathon. But the system is so corrupt it corrupts any involved with it.
We are all part of a cargo cult mentality and can’t see it.
What irritates me about the Tea Party is my impression that in many races, even if they get their dream candidate for House or Senate to win the Republican primary, they go ahead and run a second-string Tea Party candidate against him in the general to make sure a Democrat gets elected.
Let’s keep in mind that there were considerable voting irregularities during the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination process which favored Romney at the expense of all other candidates (Paul, Gingrich, and Santorum) in a very statistically bizarre way. So it might not be a more disciplined voter responsible for removing “dangerous candidates”, but rather who controlled Republican primary vote tabulation.
