In a conference call this morning, GOPAC Chairman Frank Donatelli said that yesterday's elections were a clear message for Washington.
Make no mistake, the American people said no to Washington’s ruinous fiscal policies... perhaps moderates in Congress will think twice before rubber stamping Obama’s plans. Nancy Pelosi and Bacak Obama will be little help to moderate Democrats in 2010, he said, meaning that there's no Obama "star power" to rely on when so many of those Blue Dogs are up for re-election.
Independent voters went to Mcdonnell over Deeds 63-36% and independents voted for Christie over Corzine 58-33% yesterday. That means the groundswell of conservative support that had been building up since the summer really does translate into cold, hard votes during election time. It also means that widespread disillusionment with fiscal, foreign, and domestic policies means -- lo and behold -- the people installing those policies are more likely to get booted out.

Conservatives, NOT Republicans. Republicans had nothing to do with it. |

Oh come on..what did you think a hyper-partisan loser was going to say?
Grasping for power, in any form, is more like it. |

Obviously the reason Hoffman lost in NY-23 is the Demok-rat "narrative" that he is afar-right "reactionary" took. Scozzafava was presented in every media as a "moderate", and Hoffman as her conservative (read "extreme") opponent. Which is a laugh because McDonnell is more right wing than Hoffman. But McDonnell did not ALLOW the D-rats and their media lap-dogs to paint him as such. He did a rope-a-dope to dismiss the "thesis" issue, and "emphasized bread and butter issues", while never actually disowning his sensible conservative beliefs.
The lesson for 2010 and 2012 is do NOT let Demok-rat-media complex define your candidate.
Otherwise a big night. |

Despite any message that was sent in NJ and VA, despite the expenditure and loss of Obama's political capital...the Demoncrats can do alot of mischief in the next 363 days...and there's not really a whole lot to stop them.
Obamacare, Cap-n-Tax, Card Check and other pieces of the Demoncrats communist takeover agenda will likely get passed in some form or another. And even with a clean sweep in the mid-terms, reversing the damage with Obama holding the veto pen will be nearly impossible. By the time Jan 20, 2013 rolls around, the takeover will be too entrenched to undo.
There's still much work to be done....somehow, the Obama/Pelosi/Reid agenda must be stopped. |

Losing a national office to the Democrats that could have been easily won by a Republican, winning the governorship of a state that has gone Republican traditionally, and picking up another local statewide office now equals Republican Revolution II?
Wow.
Well, at the very least, the next year is going to be very entertaining around these parts. |

The RNC must reach out now to Libertarians, Reagan Dems, Indies, to have a Big Tent in reality. The NY 23rd Pubs must have a primary and entire GOP-RNC support and they will win back that district in 2010. |

Look at the Pa. election results and see how Pubs wiped out Dem candidates. Toomey in 2010? |
