Caddell: Dems ‘Panicking,’ GOP Leadership Doesn’t ‘Grasp’ Election Results
Former Democratic pollster Pat Caddell said that Democrats are “panicking” because they know President Obama is “fully prepared to sacrifice them in the future” but that the GOP leadership doesn’t have “any idea that the American people just voted to stop Obama, not to fall over and surrender,” on Wednesday’s “Your World with Neil Cavuto” on the Fox News Channel.

“The Democratic Party is falling apart on this [Obamacare] and immigration because the numbers are very bad…something is going on. It’s called politics. They just got crushed in the election. Not that the Republican leadership has any idea that the American people just voted to stop Obama not to fall over and surrender, which seems to be their plan now. But [outgoing Senator] Harkin (D-IA) just saw his state lose a Senate seat they should have had, jeopardize other seats. Other Democrats are looking at this saying, ‘we’re going to go under on this stuff.’ And that is what is happening” he stated.

Caddell continued, “these people are looking at the election results and panicking. As they are on immigration where you already have five Democratic Senators who have said they disagree with what the president did and oppose what he did even though the Republican leadership doesn’t seem to grasp that they have the wind at their back. Democrats are panicking because they’re watching their base collapse. And what you’re seeing is the left wing of the party and the centrist wing of the party starting to go, ‘oh, my God, what are we going here?’ They kn[o]w one thing about Barack Obama he’s fully prepared to sacrifice them in the future.”
