From the desk of Jane Galt:Walk me through the logic
Walk me through the logic here: you just got routed in an election in which voters specifically expressed a desire to hand control of the Senate over to the other party. The main factor in your defeat seems to have been the opposing party's overwhelmingly popular president. So the problem, say Democratic pundits, is that the party didn't "stand up to the president", and need to either
a) Move to the left
b) Go negative on the president
I'm afraid I'm not following the logical leap from
1) The voters dissed us because they like the President
to
2) We must therefore vigorously oppose the President by any means necessary.
Can someone fill me in?
