The Conservative Excuse book!

So after a humiliating whooping in Virginia, Jersey, and many local elections across the country. What's their excuse for their losses?

So far today! Mainly on Trollbook as I like to call Facebook or Twitter. I have seen the main excuses used.

But Dems still lost over a 1000+ seats on all levels when Obama was in office! Hur Hur!

Oh Virginia and New Jersey was already Democratic! You won nothing! Hur Hur!

We still have the House, Senate, Supreme Court and Presidency! Your victory means nothing! Hur Hur!

Those are some examples...I smell fear on them. They know something big is coming in 2018. They wanna pretend that Trump is beloved all over and that conservatism is what everyone wants. Yet...what happened last night proved that all wrong.

My biggest take away is what Tom Perez said. Everyone zip code. I'm inspired to run in mine now. Everywhere we need to run. Doesn't matter if we win or lose. You make them sweat. You make them panic. Good job Virginia, good job, New Jersey, good job to Washington state, to Montana, To Georgia, to New York!
