You missed out on the Abbott party last night.

Perry had a ton to say about what TX was like before. Twenty Five years now, since a democrat was governor.

Is this really any more sinister than the idiotic demographic-triumphalism of many forum Democrats in recent years?

[Mehmentum]

Every time either party has a good election, someone says something to this effect.

[IceSpear]

Didn't Rove say this same exact thing after 2004?

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

They're probably safe for the 8 years until the next redistricting.

[Ljube]

LOL! A 1000 year majority!

[Antonio the Sixth]

The US wouldn't survive to 20 years of Republican majority anyway.

[Wisconsin+17]

If Texas can survive 25 years, why not America?

I doubt it. Due to the failure of the "Democratic gubernatorial wave" to materialize, Democrats will be even better positioned to take strategic state houses in 2018 (and consequently gerrymander the maps for a victory in 2022 or 2024), when many recently re-elected Republican governors will be term-limited. Democrats may have some wind at their backs if there is a Republican in the White House as well, although we will see if the huge turnout differential between midterms and presidential elections continues. Thus, I suspect the most likely outcomes are President Hillary with a Republican Congress until God knows when, or a President Paul/Bush/Christie/Walker/Cruz/Perry/etc. with the majority lost in 2022.

President Perry

Don't even kid about that

Shut up, the GOP is no longer a national party and Hispanics will give Hillary a 75% win in the popular vote in 2016!!!!111! Nothing changed yesterday!!

It really is true that nothing changed though. Despite the early exit polls, it seems the electorate was seemingly identical to 2010. It won't be in 2016, as Dean Chambers can attest. It seems we're in a new pattern of GOP wins in midterms and Dem wins in presidentials.

I'd shut your trap right now. It's imperative for all Hillary supporters to make sure the Republicans learn nothing. Pretend like all is lost for you.

Friendly advice.

I thought we learned our lesson about extrapolating general trends from two elections...

4 elections, actually.

The Latino effect on Presidential elections is three elections long not two.

White GOP support
2004: 58
2008: 57
2012: 59

Latino GOP support
2004: 44
2008: 31
2012: 27

Alienation of Hispanics starting in 2005 is literally the sole reason John McCain or Mitt Romney aren't President right now. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

What? That's completely ridiculous.
