I wasn't paying any attention to Virginia other than the democrats didn't really put anyone up and so the republicans got it. In New Jersey, the smell of the candidates outdid Bayonne on both sides and as usual, a third party "warning shot" failed like it always does. Daggett would have done much better numbers than he did if there was any real "message" from there. And NY-23 was willing to "stay the course" politically as well until they got to really DESPISE their "candidate" and broke with tradition.But as to any real message to be taken away from this year, it's "don't be incredibly stupid" ... I don't think that'll stick either, and I don't see the GOP waivering on their insistence on sticking to the far right wall. They've pretty much kicked out anyone to the left of Mussolini. :( I really don't think any lessons will have been learned unfortunately. |
