“I’m just going to say bluntly, we were wrong,” the former House Speaker told CBS host Charlie Rose. “I think Karl Rove, Michael Barone, Dick Morris, a whole group of us, frankly, misunderstood what was happening in the country."

This NYT article about the "cost" to big donors of the GOP only proves that money doesn't necessarily win votes or the election.

if you did not know this before now then you have not been paying attention.....out in your neck of the woods there was once the broad named Meg Whitman who spent $150 million of her own money to get elected gov but who ended up getting her ass handed to her 42%-51%

@cicerone imposter,
It might not have on the election but it sure made it closer than it should have been.

Yesterday was a glorious day of listening to Republicans eulogize the United States, which quite honestly is pretty "un-American." Using one of their favorite insults. George W. Bush didn't "destroy" America after 8 terrible years of his presidency.

Barack Obama has been steadily making things better over his first 4 years and that trend will continue. So, really, Republicans just need to shut up with their dramatic bs.

But if "God" made it happen, then it must be what's "Supposed" to happen... so I don't understand Beck (the whacko's) argument. I thought Beck liked his God and agreed with his God.

So that's the best Rush can come up with... "we're f*cked". I expected something far more vitriolic from him. I'm disappointed.

He's moving to Costa Rica. He's not going off-air; he'll be broadcasting five days/week from CR. He's certainly going to be a minority there.

And the best Gingrich can do is to say, "we need to treat the Latino's better", not the president, just the Latino's. He starts off by saying they were wrong, but apparently doesn't really understand how wrong.

What can be expected of that guy? Not only was he marginalized in the primary but he's named after a small lizard that camoflagues itself.

@Ragman,
What were you doing having a House Speaker like that and who reached a point of great influence? It is of significance to us if it is true that the USA is the leader of the western world. I sometimes think we should have a vote in your electoral college. About 90 if I have my sums right. And if we had I think Mr Obama would have a much stronger mandate than you have given him.

But what is more to the point is how have you changed to not be doing it again. Has there been a shift in the intelligence and perspicacity quotients since that time?

Are those demographic snap-shots a possibly answer? Which can't possibly look so good to most of the participants in this genteel discussion. Not the mature white males at least.

The trick-cyclists reckon that exaggerated strutting is a sign of an inferiority complex and if mature white males are becoming less and less relevant it is understandable that Woody Allen would portray the condition.

@rosborne979,
The good news is that younger voters believe in the democratic principles of fair play for all, and they will continue to grow as the Tea Party becomes less influential in our politics. In another generation, people will wonder who the Tea Party was; has beens.

@cicerone imposter,
They might wonder who the Founding Fathers were as well.

The idea that the Constitution was written is the spirit of democratic principles of fair play for all is laughable to anybody who has made even a cursory study of the negotiations leading up to its proclamation.

The "all" meant the lawyers and business men whose duty it was to themselves to create and develop a permanent usufruct on the underlying population. Or, in Veblen's words, a natural right to get something for nothing at the cost of whom it may concern.

The vast sums expended, and the tiresome boredom inflicted, during the unending run up to the election, to get to the same place, being a case in point.

I assume that the Not Voting Party was once again the largest party.
