So if the Left 'won' the electoral war, why are they so busy losing the peace?

Michigan's Right to Work vote is the fourth major defenestration of union power in recent history (Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana and Oklahoma).  Something that a decade ago 'could not happen' is happening all the time.

The big blue states are bankrupt and their economies stink.  They are increasingly among the poorest states in the nation and the middle class are fleeing them in record numbers.

Government employment is falling and with 'entitlements' scheduled to eat larger and larger proportions of the pie, are likely to plummet even faster and deeper.

The media is undergoing downsizing after downsizing with Newsweek evaporating into the ether and even the NYT facing eventual bankruptcy.

The Academy's unsustainable bubble is popping as we speak with evil portents for academic employment and wages.  Teacher's unions have never been held in such low regard and are on the defensive everywhere.

These sectors are the shock troops for leftist causes and Democrat politics.  They are where the money, the foot soldiers and the propaganda come from.  They are all in full and furious retreat.

So if the Left 'won' the electoral war, why are they so busy losing the peace?

The political future of America is a lot more complicated than the pigmentation, facial structure and genital counters would have us believe.

All in all, the news puts a smile on my face and a spring in my step.  Faster, please.
