Olu lonyulo aluyiyo enye yeziganeko ezinje nge-2006 eyenzelwe amaRiphabhlikhi awakhokelela ekubeni abuze yonke into, kodwa ayinakho ukuzalisa abaDemokhrasi ngokuzithemba ngekamva. Ukuphumelela kweRiphabhlikhi ngokuhlwanje, ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba elithile, ngenxa yokungoneliseki nguMongameli u-Obama, kodwa olo luhlobo lwendalo ngeli xesha kubongameli beminyaka esibhozo. Ngaphandle koku, umsindo ovuthayo malunga nomgaqo-nkqubo othile, onje nge-Affordable Care Act kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo okanye imfazwe e-Iraq ngo-2006, ibingekho kolu nyulo.
Kwiidemokhrasi, ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba elincinci iRiphabhlikhi, olu nyulo yinto yovavanyo lweRorschach, apho abantu abohlukeneyo banokubona abakufunayo. Abaxhasi bakaHillary Clinton baya kuyibona njengokoyiswa kuka-Mongameli u-Obama, kodwa hayi umboniso wokuzithemba kumaRiphabhlikhi. Iidemokhrasi eziqhubela phambili ziya kwalatha ekoyisweni kweedemokhrasi ezininzi eziphakathi njengobungqina bokuba iqela labo lifuna ukuya ngasekhohlo. Abaxhasi baka-Mongameli u-Obama baya kuthi oku kohlulwa kuka-Mongameli kungabikho kuvoto kunye nasekupheleni kwexesha lokuphuma kungathandwa kakhulu kwi-Democrats. Akukho namnye kwaba bantu oya kuba ulungile, kodwa bonke baya kuba nakho ukwenza ingxoxo elungileyo. Ukusombulula ezo ngxoxo kunye nokwenza ingqiqo ngobu busuku, nangona kunjalo, kuya kufuneka kwi-post-Obama yeDemocratic Party, into eqale ngokufanelekileyo ngokuhlwanje, ukuya phambili.
