Anyways I think the election shows a few small things.

Republicans are energized and democrats are not.


I agree in part, but you have to admit that money also makes a big difference. The GOP outspent the Democrats 20 to 1, thanks largely to the Citizen's United case allowing unlimited and anonymous donations.

If the expenditures for this election had been equal and the Democrats had still lost, your point would be stronger.

What could go wrong with that? I'm sure that corporations, always known for their impeccable sense of fair play, would never use it to secretly manipulate politicians to create laws and policies favoring transnational companies' interests over citizens' interests. And they would certainly never use it to create propaganda to trick a dumbed down population into cheering it all on. Impossible.

That is why I have said with the new ad limit plus increase enthusiasm with Republicans...
2012 is going to be a hard election.


Do not like Romney much but I think Obama is a big disappointment.

The only reason to really care about Obama getting in is that the GOP seems to be saber-rattling about Iran right now.
