So ofcourse DADT and repeal of DOMA will be the first to go. OTOH We could become good mechanics, seeing how familiar we are with the underside of the bus.
7. ...and expect the Democrats to start running even more to the right
Kiss any progress on gay rights goodbye for a few years. You'll just have to "wait your turn" and quit "whining" about your "pony" until "the time is right."
10. Losing in a liberal state to a conservative Republican? Clearly we need to be more liberal!
That's ridiculous reasoning on the face of it.
So is the belief that this was a referendum on whether the Dems were being left-wing enough. You don't need a political science degree to see that an arrogant and poorly run campaign like Coakley's alienated blue-collar voters for reasons having to do with attitude and effort, rather than policy.
