I expect the president to acknowledge a shellacking this afternoon and then go back to promoting his radical agenda by executive order and more covertly through bureaucratic initiative. This is a man who can brook no dissent. The welfare of Americans is secondary to his wishes. The welfare of America is secondary to his wishes. Even the welfare of the Democratic Party is secondary to his wishes.
A lot of Democrats had their careers ended by Barack Obama. Hillary Clinton might sit with Evan Bayh and Mark Pryor and Anthony Brown and Russ Feingold in the Martha Coakley Suite when all is said and done. Coakley was collateral damage in 2010 and again in 2014. She is just one more pawn to Obama. So is everyone else for that matter.
As we speak, I bet the Democratic brain trust is begging you know who to tone it down in the next two years. Don't do anything rash. Puppies and kittens in the Rose Garden. That sort of thing.
Barack Obama loves chaos. He loves crisis. As president he is still a community organizer, trying hard to disrupt anything harmonious. Look for more expressions of creative grievance. Look for more turmoil. Yesterday's elections will be seen as the actions of an unappreciative mob. Who are they to mock their leader?
Lame duck presidency? I don't think so.
