1. Dems didn't sell healthcare reform well enough
2. Young voters sat out the midterms
3. The economy can't be magically fixed in just 2 years, voters didn't get this
4. GOP/Fox News fear machine
5. The Tea Party movement boosted the GOP's short-term fortunes
6. More and more very old D-leaning demos were dying off (especially in the South)
7. "dEATH PanELs!!"
8. R gerrymanders reverting back to form
9. Democrats' organizing and organization atrophying after Obama's win in 2008
10. Democratic president in White House > opposition organizing is boosted > damage done by #9 is made more acute
