No, what it says is what it always says. Midterms are half the turnout of Prez elections.
Leftists just cant face the facts...
This was about Obama and his policies, and it was a huge statement by the nations voters, once in a hundred years huge
Yes, Americans would rather have a second 'Great Depression'. To have boots on the ground in Libya, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Syria and Ukraine. To have lost much of their property (including their homes). To have the richest 1% lord over us. That the middle and poor classes are lumped together without distinction. And for the coastline between Texas and Florida to be one vast puddle of oil.
You sure this is about "Obama's policies"? Americans have simply gotten dumber and forgetting history. They want the very people into office that fucked this nation up a decade ago. They listen to the honey promises that will never happen in the next year and a half.

And while midterms are admittedly bad for the presidents party (extremely rarely this bad) there is a key difference
This is just annoying, not bad. 'Bad' would be the Republicans controlling Congress, US Supreme Court and the White House. Were they could basically dictate policy like tyrants. And have their army of 'Low Information Voters' (many with guns) supporting their every movement as the United States is dissolved into something very 'un-Founding Father-lke'.
That would be bad. What we have is just an annoyance. The GOP has a year and a half to show....something....to the American people. And the voters are REALLY pissed at Congress right now. So when nothing really gets done (or worst), there will not be to many people voting Republican/Tea Party in 2016. All those seats will be lost and more in both the House and Senate. We'll have Mrs. Clinton as our President. Just in time for two US Supreme Court candidates to be decided upon....
And that Court will shift from the five conservatives and four liberals to six liberals and three conservatives.....

When it happens to Republicans, its after our left-of-center media and Hollywood etc had been dogging on the Republican president for several years with the worst propaganda imaginable
Mr. George W. Bush lost much in the way of credibility in Iraq and Afghanistan. People were tired that the 'Mastermind of 9/11' was not caught. That the whole set of wars was just a money grab for Defense and other Republican-sponsored companies *cough*halburton*cough*
When those WMDs didnt pan out as 'massive stockpiles' like the administration stated in 2002-2003, many were disillusioned by the lying Republican Party. And later when Americans found the Republican/Tea Party gutting regulations to keep the economy from getting fucked up, decided to vote Democrat.
Of course the Republican Gerrymandering has taken its toll on America....

When it happens to Democrats, its despite the the same bad actors carrying the Democrats' water for several years
When Democrats fuck things up, its due to several things. That an the propaganda machines spewing misinformation 24/7 from the likes of FOX News and other conservative media. Can you tell me what the ACA is suppose to accomplish? Since you never read the document and had your mind filled with mindless bullshit on it? I read the 2409 pages. Thats why I know your full of shit on the subject!
Did you really think FOX News got the moniker "Mouthpiece of the GOP" for nothing? The amount of bullshit and lies out of that organization over the last twenty years is amazing. That conservatives suck it all up without an ounce of thought, nor the idea to check if its accurate and true. Told to not trust other media sources because they are....liberal. Do you know the root word of liberal there, Sanity? Means "FREEDOM". So yes, FOX News and other conservative media doesnt want the 'Low Information Voters' having access to FREE MEDIA. But rather...State Run Media....like something out of "1984".

And when it happens to Republicans, all the same propagandists assure us that the Republicans are finished as a viable party.
Its not propaganda when the truth and facts are being told. Your 'side' has Creationists, mine has Scientists. Your sides believes what Big Oil demands, mine has Scientists. Your side has Big Tobacco, mine has Scientists. Your side has lunatic conspiracy theorists. mine uses the facts and evidence to determine history. Your side uses falsehoods, lies, misdirection, deceit, and 'ignoring reality'.....that's propaganda, Sanity. Mine looks at facts, figures, evidence, history....and learns from each to understand events and concepts. Your side hates thinking for itself and needs someone to think for them (i.e. Low Information Voters), mine has above 90% of scientists across the nation voting Democrat.
For the most part, Republicans are finished. The next two years Democrats can simply play the same game Republicans have done to the President. An Republicans will be seen as whiners accomplishing nothing of use. They'll try to defund the ACA another fifty times, all the while finding more and more Americans support the concept. Their ideology will be their undoing. The party will implode like rats on a sinking ship. Cutting in to each other in a sad attempt to 'be more conservative' than the next guy. All the while forgetting something....
...Most Americans do not care for the conservative stupidity, ideology or failed gimmicks/games. Democrats will simply tap into that frustration.
