I'm as nihilistic as they get. But WTF?
I'm not writing this to cheer you up. 55-45. That's a fact.
But holy hell WTF? Name a Democrat state that lost a Senator. And look at the Senate map for 2016.
All things being equal the Senate will be blue in 2 years.
But that assumes Democrats won't piss their pants and surrender... and divide.
The Scarborough media is gonna ride this latest shit like a drug.
Are you going to abet them? I've seen a ton of it already, including the outrage, which just points fingers - a hoped for outcome.

Rend your garments and it'll become the reality of "on(?) year" elections.
Time for some grace. This is the effect of the country we live in. This is the effect of 50 disparate states.
Show some understanding for how improbable it was to get a Real Health Care Reform bill through this morass. For how hard it is to get anything in a country where one of its states will elect a Right winger on the same day it votes to raise the minimum wage.
This is our lot, as a 320+million strong nation.
This shit is hard.
Calm down.
