The Republicans did not get elected on any policy initiative as much as Pres Obama’s silly utterance that “his” policies were on the ballot. This will likely go down as one of the silliest political statements ever made.

The results certainly indicate that to be the case. The Louisiana runoffs show this to be abundantly true.

The Democrats lost and they lost on trust, integrity, defense, war, Obamacare, energy, immigration and a number of other flawed and failed policies. Simple competence is missing in this administration.

The Republicans have almost no campaign promises to fulfill other than being against almost all Obama policies.

This is a historic opportunity for some folks who were sentenced to wandering the desert for 40 years after the 2012 election. The Republicans need to take a deep breath and put up simple legislation that solves real problems — secure the border, as an example.

The Republicans sweep the Louisiana runoffs building a 54 Senator majority and 246 House members. The Republicans own every Senate seat from Texas to the Carolinas as well as the Statehouses and the Governor’s mansions.

Still, the Republicans can find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Legislate well, Republicans. Everybody is watching.
