Yeah I heard the rats lost the sign war in MA big time. Suburban Cook County IL as well.
To tell you the truth, I'm still...not shocked, but something...that Sean Bielat lost. Like I posted (and others here in area); the Sean signs were out in force. As Election Tuesday got closer, I did notice some houses had both Patrick and Bielat signs on their lawns, which told me Deval was going to pull it out.
Sean could have won in the 10th CD. I did predict that Perry would get burned by the police officer/underage girl/alleged abuse charges - that's all we heard the last 2-3 weeks of the campaign.
Too bad RI decided to stick with stupidity too; Loughlin was a terrific candidate for the Patches seat. At least NH and ME showed that they aren't finished yet.
Although Quinn pulled it out, you got a RINO to take the Obama seat (funny how the media never mentions that a Republican won that seat, eh?) and a few Congressional seats too. As a whole, the GOP did very, very well in the Midwest - a great sign for 2012.
