There is no virtue in losing.
If Conservatives aren’t sitting in office, we can’t do anything. We sure can’t put the brakes on anything going on.
This isn’t a “win”. This is an embarrassment.
The Republicans know how to win - they won’t do it.
So it’s doubly a loss.
One house seat wasn’t going to stop the RATS agenda, but Scuzzy would have voted with them on everything from abortion, to cap and tax, funding for ACORN and card check. Better a Democrat than an open Democrat In All But Label Only.
True—a loss to a Dem is a loss, regardless of whether the Dem's last name is Owens of Scozzafava.
