(try saying THAT 4 times real fast)
seems to operate as a single unit. I am getting tired of trying to guess the hows, whys, and detailed mechanics of such precision, so lets just look at the previous results and postulate the future from them.
Corporate M$M and the RW Lie Machine write the backstory that the Owners of our Inverted Totalitarian Nation want us to believe...and believe it we do, even to the extent that most people STILL believe our media is "liberal" :rofl:
It is quite clear that our Owners have been socially engineering a RW Authoritarianism as rapidly as they are able to, without losing their Plausible Deniability and breaking cover. Obama was allowed to win by the Owners looting the economy and crashing it on their way out - he never would have been able to overcome the RW Lie Machine/Corporate M$M unless the economy had crashed.
Also, the "win" by Obama gave the Owners a renewed blast of Plausible Deniability to the degree that almost all of the American Subject Populace will NEVER EVER AGAIN question our laughably riggable and untrustworthy voting systems. Obama, for his part, is not threatening the Owners in any substantive way, witness the vast expansion of corporate power in the HCR Bill and his stated desire to let the myriads of Loyal Bushie Felons go without a single investigation.
Which sets us up for a depressingly familiar script, now that Plausible Deniability has been ladled out.
The Bushpublicans are going to gain seats, and very likely lots of them, no matter what Plebians push what buttons in what phony voting process who's results are more of a "suggested starting point" for rigging rather than actual voting. (we should still vote anyway, if only to particpate in Reality TV) No one will ask any questions because the Corporate M$M and RW Lie Machine are writing the script that will be passively accepted, as they all are.
The minimum amount of Plausible Deniability, after 8 years of hideous Bush failures and the looting of the economy, is 2 years of Democratic "control" (which does not threaten the Owners in the least) followed by another '94.
Only THIS time I think the Bushies have such control over the voting systems, combined with their control over Corporate M$M, that Obama won't be granted a second term by The Owners. He will have fulfilled his usefulness while simultaneously expanding many Bush policies and Corporate Power.
To my mind, it is foolish to analyze American politics as we would a Free Nation's politics, simply because we are NOT a Free Nation. "American Kremlinology" is what is required to understand where our Inverted Totalitarianism is going, more RW Authoritarian and more brutal.
Obama's not even slowing it down and he has made no changes that will interfere with the RW Authoritarians continuing right from where they left off in 2013 or 2017 (though, as I said I severely doubt Obama will be granted a second term by The Owners of America).
