IMO it's more the Candidates then it is the Politics. Republicans will learn.

Oh, it's most definitely the politics given the change in voting patterns of traditional Democratic groups. Native Americans , traditionally one of the strongest Dem voting blocks completely flipped and Dems lost a lot more than usual among black and Hispanic voters. This was mostly based on economic choices but that doesn't explain why NAs went much further. What do you think the Dems did to piss off NAs over above all other groups? (I'm convinced it was the culture war actions over the last 5 years that did that - NAs were basically told by non-NA cultural Warriors to sit down and shut-up, that they knew what was good for them and then those warriors proceeded to destroy much of what NAs liked, ostensibly on behalf of NAs).
