I amazed the polls were talking double digits, and it's what - 52%, that's not exactly a landslide except for electorally speaking.
The game is played on the electoral map, something the republican's have now taught them all too well.
If you look at the popular vote it isn't all that much, but if you look at electoral college votes, it's a killer.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

After hearing for the past three months how he couldn't lose, why does the media act like it's so surprising he won?

Republicans got their butts kicked. I would actually consider that a landslide (on Obama). They took clear cut majority (and maybe overiride a fillibuster) in the senate, took over more of the house.
Will Republicans have any say at all in what happens over the next 2 years... to four? Nope. Might as well take the time off.
I am not a Republican or a Democrat. I have said that many times before. However, that kind of vast majority is scary. Well, I will say one thing though: I personally will accept NO excuses for not getting the job done. They wanted it all - they got it. No more excuses or blaming everybody else. The ball is in their court. Let's see what they do with it. If they screw it up, you will find them in the same situation in 4 years.
My opinions. Now, lets move on to sailing.

Sailing? I didn't realize people did that around here!
