    What the election shows is how nearsighted and inept Democrats are. The Republikans openly declared their intent to gerrymander the hell out of the country by riding the (predictable) anti-Obama backlash back in 2010. Other than their usual boneheaded infighting, the Dems just sat there and drooled as it happened. Betcha they have no game to start recovering things in 2016, and can’t be arsed to lay the groundwork to at least return competitive elections by 2022, much less gerrymander in their own favor.
