we got smashed in CT. Lost everywhere. What do we do now, reload? Reload for what?
Yeah, I see we gained nada in CT. The lemmings there seem to love their fascist Governor and the Communist Party. The sane people have voted with their feet.
Welcome to how I feel.
The elections were a mosaic, not favoring one party or the other as a whole. It depended largely on what region the elections were. It looks like we did well in Virginia, though not as well as hoped earlier. Mississippi was mostly a sweep, Kentucky was mostly a flop. Ohio rejected the reforms that Republicans passed, but also rejected ObamaCare.
Every election cycle is unique. I was hoping that next year would be 2010 redux, but that was too much to hope for.
IMO, there are going to be flip flops for several election cycles to come. Many states are in dire financial shape. Look at RI, e.g. I doubt CT is a whole lot better although the well heeled in CT near NYC are probably helping to keep that state afloat.
Whoever is in charge, Rat or GOP, is going to be forced to make very unpopular decisions about either raising taxes, cutting services, or both. The bearer of bad news is going to punished at the polls the next election cycle. The heavily Rat places will go down the tubes without making a change in leadership, but the swing places will not.
