Meet Meltdown Mike

"Meet‘Meltdown Mike’ Bost, the tantrum-throwing, dog-murdering new
GOP congressman from southern Illinois. And how did someone with
Bost’s stellar reputation get elected to the U.S. House of Representatives?"

[b]John Boehner, Mitch McConnell vow to kill Obamacare


Quoted Text
Among those reforms, according to the Ohio Republican, would be eliminating the individual mandate that requires individuals to purchase health insurance or pay a penalty.

Why don't you ask the people from Barry's home state?

He has been the "do nothing president" and "obstructionist-in-chief" for 6 years.

Surprised it took this long for the tear thread to be started.

See this whole 'The NEW Republican Congress Vows To Take Away Your Health Care!' scare thingy doesn't work because nobody believes you. Everyone thinks you are full of sh!t.

FYI.....Every GOP Senator that won on Tues ran on the platform of repealing Obamacare!.....Another FYI....28 Senators that voted FOR Obamacare are no longer in office.

Wanna see something else that is cool....Here's the Congressional map





Oh hell....Let's just keep it going....




















And Finally....

Red is a beautiful color.  This bodes well for the Presidential election in 2016.   Some analysts are saying that the Democrats "bench" has been obliterated and the GOP's bench has been greatly expanded.  The GOP majority in the House is the highest - and Democratic minority the lowest - that it has been in 85 years.  This may impact national politics for a generation.

Every time a election happens like this, everyone thinks the losing party is on its deathbed....it never turns out that way.

When Obama got re-elected in '12, Boxy was on here all gleeful that the GOP was in a death spiral... I said back then its all about cycles and here we are..
I say the same thing about the Dems... they may be down, but they are far from out. IMHO, 2016 looks real good for them in the Presidential race.
Everyone is talking Hillary, but I think the GOP would have a much harder time with Elizabeth Warren. I don't see anyone in the GOP that is a presidential winner, but things can change.

Both sides suffered from a lack of turnout in this election.  America hates the US Congress even more than they dislike
Obama.  
Q.  Who voted in this election???
A.  The FoxSnooze Viewers... Old White Men!
