"They had wind at their back," said former Rep. Tom Davis, a Virginia Republican and a student of national politics, of Obama's historic victory. "People were hungry for change, and the president was running against a 72-year-old guy who couldn't use a computer."

People are still hungry for change. That's why there are Tea Parties.

The establishment of both Parties does not truly understand is that more Government is the problem, not the solution.

But hey, what can you expect from a RINO like Davis, who was my local Congress critter until I moved into a neighboring district in 2006?

Our next governor in Michigan is pretty likely to be a republican and my congressional district is looking a lot like it will return to republican hands.

“And it’s raising the question of whether the president’s 2008 win was the result of a unique set of circumstances that will be difficult for him to replicate again and perhaps downright impossible for other Democrats on the ballot to reprise.”

Obama won by running a “Blame Bush” campaign. It’s quite simple actually.

They were ALWAYS red ... We are Americans!

The blue came?comes from the imported and invented attrempts to dye our nation something other than what she is.

The Dems are shooting themselves in the foot and don’t even know it.

They really, honestly don’t seem to get that people don’t want or like what they have to offer.

Keep up the good work guys. Maybe we can get this country back yet.

The reversal in states like VA are voters “buyers remorse”. The Media lied to the public and told them how bad everything was, and until democraps really ran things into the ground and showed everyone how bad things could get in reality.

The Dem-bulb States have always been Red because they are filled with a bunch of Leftists. Who ever decided to label those States as blue during the 2000 national elections must have been a Leftist.

Red States for the Reds, Blue States for the rest of us.

Well they are certainly “blue states” now.

The stranglehold the Corruptocrats have had on them for decades has choked the life out of them leaving only the blood sucking vampire Corruptocrat governments and the parasitical unions and welfare recipients who feed off the corpse.

See Detroit and Michigan for a fine example of that.
