It really is amazing that most of the Republicans don't really seem to get why they lost and didn't even see it coming. Meanwhile, Team Obama got just the results they were expecting. It really doesn't help the Republicans to produce data that shows them winning if it isn't based in reality.

The Republicans with at least half a brain realize they have a demographic problem, but they don't seem to get they have a policy problem as well. The electorate recognizes there is a deficit. They think Obama's approach of asking the wealthiest Americans to pay a bit more and cutting military spending makes a lot more sense than tax cuts, "closing loopholes" and severely slashing social programs. Apparently Speaker Boehner and friends didn't get the memo that it was President Obama and his policies that won. Not only did they win the election but there is plenty of polling that shows the electorate prefers Obama's approach. I think President Obama should sell his proposal for dealing with the "fiscal cliff" directly to the people because the Republicans don't appear to be ready to compromise. I really hope the Democrats stand firm.

Oh yeah and the Republican's demographic problem isn't going away if they keep referring to African Americans and others as takers and Latinos as illegals and all the rape talk, not even supporting equal pay for women and trying to suppress the vote. On top of that they have warring factions between the Tea Party and Establishment Republicans.

They have a lot of problems and I am skeptical they can really turn this around. America is changing and changing fast. It has been for quite some time.
