In the long haul a party that is collapsing in urban areas will not win you the Senate or the presidency. its unsustainable. Not to mention demographics are not on their side either.

Pelosi and Schumer win their individual elections with ease, but they are far from inspiring leaders and Pelosi's victory speech last night rubbed a lot of left-wing voters the wrong way.

You want all Muslims deported from the United States and then suddenly care about a radicalized Muslim who was an active threat to the country who you'd want killed anyways getting due process? Oh right, gotta stick it to Obama.
