1. Thanks. We got some major wins this year, but it's never over.

[hrmjustin]

2. When all is said and done the President will probably win by over 5 million votes.

Yet CNN says it is tied. lol!

[Jennicut]

8. That meme will never die. Nor should it.

CNN was terrible during the election.

[democrattotheend]

3. And apparently, House Dems are up to a margin of 1 million votes

Yet they have only 201 seats. How messed up is that?

[hrmjustin]

4. We won the popular vote in the house races of PA but got only 5 seats out of 18.

This is the consequences of loosing big on the state level in 2010. These gop bastards know really how to draw lines.

5. thats for sure...

however a lot can happen in 8 years.. we need to nibble away at the red districts as the demographics change... we will take a few more each election... of course ultimately we need a majority in 20..

6. The gerrymandering needs to be challenged in court as a violation of civil rights.

The 2011 gerrymandering can be undone by law suits.
