"My point wasn't that the Democratic Party didn't get punished, my point was
that moderate to conservative democrats got punished at a much higher rate
than progressives. That same punishment was visited on the Republican side
as well, though more so in the primary season than the general election

"Who got punished?"
The Democratic Party got punished for not listening to their constituents.
This is very obvious when conservative Democrats who voted against Obama
Care got trounced by no name challengers.
Certain incumbent Republicans got punished in the primaries for the same
reason.
The
Weird.
Democrats outspent the Republicans in the House
and the Republicans outspent the Democrats in the Senate.
What was your point?
Money has the opposite effect?

Hard to say.I think the people out here got really tired of her ads,
so it might have been closer with less spending. The hypocrisy on the
illegal housekeeper issue hurt her a lot. But basically her overall
message killed her chances, as did Fiorina's. I'm a former C-level
exec at a technology
that was dumb money.
but, do you think the race would have been that close without that level of
spending?

I don;t see that at all.
What I saw was that _exceptionally huge_ money affected a lot of races. Not
normal money, not even big money, but ridiculous money.
Like tequila shots at the end of a night, money gave people like a 20% bump
they otherwise wouldn't have had.
In races that should not hav
You know, I was just thinking about who got punished in this election.
When I look over the results, both in the primaries and the general
election, I see a polarizing effect. A lot of Tea Party sort of folks
made primary challenges to more established Republicans, coming at
them from the right.
