"The defeat — “a massacre,” The Economist called it — marks
the final collapse of Obamaism, a species of left-liberalism so
intrusive, so incompetently executed, and ultimately so unpopular that
it will be seen as a parenthesis in American political history.
Notwithstanding Obama’s awkward denials at his next-day news conference,
he himself defined the election when he insisted just last month that
“these [i.e. his] policies are on the ballot — every single one of
them.”
"They were, and America spoke. But it was a negative judgment, not an endorsement of the GOP."
