"For Republicans, one of the worst parts of the GOPs 2012 *trouncing* was that they didnt see it coming."
"Top party strategists and officials always knew there was a chance that President Barack Obama would get reelected, or that Republicans wouldnt gain control of the Senate. But down to the final days of the national campaign, few anticipated the severe setbacks that Republicans experienced on Nov. 6."
