Wasn't the Tea
Party wave election in 2010 supposed to be the earth-shaking
political transformation that would put an end to the butt hurt suffered by angry
old conservative white folks once and for all?
We were told the Gingrich revolution in 1994 was the beginning of the Thousand Year Republican Reich.
Then we were told the 2000 election (settled 5-4 in the Supreme Court) ushered in the Thousand Year Republican Reich.
Then it was the 2010 Tea Party Wave.
Now it's the 2014 wave, in which five states that Romney carried in 2012 replaced Senate Democrats with Republicans. Add in the Tom Harkin retirement in Iowa, that's six.
At this pace, the 1000 year GOP Reich should finally be ready to roll in 980 years.
