The Republican Party Seems To Be Doing Everything They Can To Lose The General Election, But What About The House

The Republican Party Seems To Be Doing Everything They Can To Lose The General Election, But What About The House

by John A. Smith (Medic3569)

The Republicans seem to be hell bent on losing the General Election with a party that is fractured and can't even get things done within their own party. Look at immigration, earlier this year they spent millions of dollars "going into the communities to develop better communication" with minorities 
yet have internal wars on what immigration reform should be. I think that the General Election for President is the Democrats to lose, yes even though it is only 2013.

With Republicans going into the 2014 elections with 234 seats to the Democrats 201 seats the Democrats would have to pick up a net 17 seats. This will be tough because history says the President loses seats in midterm elections. But they (the Democrats) must do everything they can to regain control of the House of Representatives if this country is to move forward. We cannot afford to have the fractured Republican party and especially Tea Party obstructionists continue to hold back the economy, jobs, infrastructure and attacking women's rights, not to mention all the voting suppression laws being passed.
