Yeah I know GF, you and all the other left wing nuts are just concerned about our electoral chances and have our best interests at heart. RFLMAO! Funny, I don't recall all this free advice in 2010 when we kicked your butts in the mid terms. But you are falling into the same trap as many others because you get your news from the govt media so its no surprise you are getting this all wrong. Plenty of truly conservative candidates won, including a goodly number of Tea Party favorites like Ted Cruz, Michelle Bachman, etc., even in the face of an onslaught of special interest money to defeat them.
And your conclusion about redistricting is likewise wrong. Gerrymandering cost Allen West by taking away a very safe seat and putting him into a more difficult district. Look it up.
And many of our Senate candidates that lost were not very conservative (i.e., Scott Brown, Linda McMahon, etc.) and many Democrat candidates that won ran as fiscal and/or social conservatives (yes, I know they were lying but they had to do that to win). And the fact that Akin and Murdoch lost because of gaffes that were magnified by the sycophantic media should not give you any comfort. If they had not made those gaffes they would have crushed their Dem opponents but if you want to rely on the missteps of a GOP candidatet to win I wish you luck in the long run. Those mistakes don't happen very often.
And finally, as your beloved NYT pointed out, the nation actually moved further right in this election, just not enough to get rid of TOTUS. Oblamer, the first incumbent to win reelection with fewer votes than he got the first time around. You must be proud....
And on a final note, ask yourself why TOTUS did not win any states with voter ID laws. A coincidence? I think not.
