See, this is why I like federalism.

Yeah, we're gonna have to really play it cool now.

If this was a rational world, neither of the parties would even fucking exist

If the left stays in CA, and the right stays in TX. And no one goes stepping on each other's toes... I could like that.

I'm worried all the alt-right trolls are going to wreck everything for us.

Both have dropped the ball immensely\

I don't know if this can be chalked up as a routine midterm. Not with the turnout.

In a rational world one examines the evidence and decides what is the best solution for the situation.

Im just waiting for the memes to pop up tomorrow

In all fairness, each one of them should've recieved a kick to the balls

It's not a routine midterm. But the results seem pretty normal.

"I think centrist is the way to go for democrats" WE HAVE RATIONALITY PEOPLE

That's if the Dems ever go centrist

Most midterms draw only people angry with the president. This time BOTH sides were pulled in with passion.

Jews? Jews.

We just had an enthusiasm surge. That much is sure. But this has happened before.

well cali has a good chunk of red its the big cities that turn it blue

Honestly, I dont even think a centrist exists between the big two

Am I the only one who thinks that both parties should've been put out of their misery a while ago?

^

Why?

because honestly, it seems like both are just flavors of the same exact raw sewage

The US was actually very polarized before WWII. It only really came together in the past decades. There was a left press and a right press. Enthusiasm was usually high.

Centrists are an endangered species on both sides of the aisle

the only difference is the color and military spending

The founding fathers warned against a 2 party system...

What has changed is that the parties are more homogenous than back then and federalism is not as strong.

I am rare

The US can actually survive partisanship. But it needs to be able to function locally.

Oh no

Yes, a 2 party system seems to be causing a significant amount of problems.

CA is coming in

Clearly the answer is to impose a Catholic Theocratic Republic across America to restore order and the way to God

Luckily, we seem to be moving to a 1 party system.

Newsom is projected to win

Oh, don't tease me, Red.

Blue states staying blue in cali so far

Again, if the Republicans would drop thier hate for GLBT I'd be open to them. But, alas...

A pendulum perhaps?

While I tend to run more conservative, I don't really agree with all of the Republican things...
