Conservatives are arguing that Mccains lost was all his fault and that the country is still conservative. Liberals are arguing that americans wanted a change from conservative control. This debate is a little dumb because either way Obama won, and not only won but got 2/3 of the electoral vote. It wasn't a dead heat like the 04 election, this was a defining win for the Democrates.
And already, we are entering the presidential cycle for 2012. Conservatives are already battling over who will lead them and some are even planing campaigns in battle ground states. It's like the next primaries started the second Obama hit 270. If you thought the last cycle of politics was annoying, then get ready because now we are entering a world of 24 hour presidential campaigns.

The GOP is making the huge mistake by trying to purge the moderates from the party. That's where the swing vote is. What Obama did was take the Gore/Kerry/Dukakis coalition and added white-collar moderate Republicans, suburbanites, and dovish Republicans to the mix. If the Democrats are left to hog the middle of the road, the GOP could be further in trouble. Jerry Falwell is dead, and it's time his movement is too, for the party's sake.
