How Many Seats Did the Democrats Lose Under Obama? Over a THOUSAND.

The Associated Press has finally faced the reality of the presidency of Barack Obama and the “Obama coalition” that swept him into office: “What worked for Obama just did not work for this party.”

“In boasting about his tenure in the White House, President Barack Obama often cites numbers like these: 15 million new jobs, a 4.9 percent unemployment rate and 74 months of consecutive job growth,” writes the AP’s Lisa Lerer in a devastating post-mortem on the Obama presidency. “There’s one number you will almost never hear: More than 1,030 seats.”
