Why Republicans underperformed

[bill718]

Republicans: You should have won this 2022 midterm election big time. Biden and the Dem's aren't very popular, inflation is rearing it's ugly head, and interest rates are on the rise. There are many reasons why you didn't win, but here is the big one no one is talking about:

**Other than bashing the Liberals, you provided no detailed plan of action.

All we heard from GOP candidates for months were rants about crime, open borders, rigged elections, free stuff, Socialism, and all the usual Conservative soundbites. Not one single specific idea on how to deal with any of the problems our nation faces. News Flash little elephants: If all you can offer the voters is mudslinging at the Liberals, you're in for a rough road ahead.

Those are the facts, Jack - - Just the facts!

Do you think there was some overconfidence on the part of the GOP?

I think you have to be "for" something...not just against everything.

We are transitioning from one empire to another as the big boss man of the world. When these things happen though dark ages and massive wars can happen. We had two wars from the end of Britain and the emergence of the United States. And we spoke the same language. China will be brutal to others. To many movies on the NAZIS and the concentration camps. Not enough on the Asians in bad times. We did see some though. Japan, Korea and China have a vicious history with each other as well as other East Asian nations. They will be many times stricter than White devil when in charge. That is their nature. they are intelligent and found capitalism to riches with a totalitarian government style.

I think the electorate was just more satisfied with the Status Quo than originally thought. Maybe they were impressed with the sharpness of Biden and Fetterman, after listening to the Lame Stream Media for months praising these leftists for their alleged lack of brain damage.

Democrats are cheering despite losing the House and having a razor thin edge in the Senate.

Good point, if it were true...

The fact is that the mainstream media only reports on the mud slinging...that's what sells apparently. Every candidate in every race I observed had clear action plans and goals in their platform. The media ignored those.

As a matter of fact, I am proud to be a member of a party that still actively debates topics. Criticism, or "Mudslinging" as you call it, is a necessary part of any debate. Democracy depends on open debate. Compare this to the Progressive/Democratic party, where there is no debate internally, and everyone blindly follows whatever policy the media deems Politically Correct...the media runs the democratic party. Pathetic.

Republicans even debate things internally. Weak-minded pussies see that as a "fracture" or something wrong, when in fact it is the essence of the process of democracy. The epitome of health.

The answer is really simple.

Democrats managed to steal a few districts and there are more stupid inbred Moon Bat idiots in this country than we realized.

Biden bought the election, That's a fact , he knew he couldn't spend a trillion dollars with out Congress approval and a judge ruled it rightfully so not legal

And look how it makes their food and gas cheaper than ours.

Democrat voters don't care about inflation or rising crime. They only care about their candidate winning.

Compete cognitive disconnect, isn't it, when "their candidate" is the one enslaving them?

Most Democrat voters don't care about that.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

No, they don't. What makes them so comfortable being slaves that they will fight their liberators? (Rhetorical question, mostly.)

**Other than bashing the Liberals, you provided no detailed plan of action.

Likely because Republicans have no plan of action – detailed or otherwise.

Republicans have abandoned sound, responsible governance altogether – indeed, they’re likely incapable of sound, responsible governance, their ability to do so having atrophied after decades of propagating misinformation, conspiracy theories, and lies.

 

[Mac1958]

These parties never do honest self-assessments when they under-perform.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

True – other than being ‘for’ reckless, irresponsible tax cuts and deregulation, being ‘for’ a Federal abortion ban, or being ‘for’ government regulation of social media.

Yes.

This and moving too fast on abortion.

That's because you lying scum stole it and the republicans are cowards and lazy.

 

[Samofvt]

That's because you lying scum stole it and the republicans are cowards and lazy.

And I suppose YOU, miketx, are some sort of independent, self-ordained party unto yourself, not having the balls to show your allegiance to any major public platform until you see which way the wind blows...

If you are an "Independent" voter, you literally have NO VOICE. You don't have a voice in any of the major parties. Everything in the party system hinges on local voter participation. But instead of participating in your local political party to help guide the platform with your voice, you sit back and do nothing. Then complain from your armchair when you don't like the way things are going. A real piss-ant of a do-nothing.
