The GOP got swamped because they're unwilling to adapt to the reality of the changing electorate. You're not going to win elections solely on the white male protestant vote anymore. Hell, they can't even carry single white women at this point.
Purge the right-wing nutjobs and moderate your outdated ideology on religion, immigration, abortion, gay rights, birth control access, and a batshit crazy foreign policy, or keep losing every election and continue your rapid descent into irrelevancy on the level of the Dixiecrats.

Essentially this.
Republicans lost this more then the Democrats won. (if that makes sense)
Rudy Giuliani was on MSNBC last night and echoed the same sentiment of outdated ideology. You could see it at the coverage of both parties headquarters. Sad part is, if Republicans did a little homework and didn't have their head in the sand, they could have easily beat the Democrats.
If the Republicans can learn to stay out of peoples lives and bedrooms, relook at their stance on immigration and generally stay away from nutball crazies.. then they have a good chance during the next race. As it is now, they're WAY out of touch.
