We will win around 3 score House races (including several long-time liberal Democrats), several Senate races, a slew of governorships, and this will be spun as a loss. We are fighting the Democrats on their dark blue turf, they have become the regional party, several states have returned to their red status (Florida, Virginia, Indiana, among others), and this will be spun as a loss. We are well positioned for 2012. The conservative movement is back and growing. Nancy Pelosi and her machine have been defeated. And the GOP moderates have their backs to the wall. And this will be spun as a lost.
As for compromise, the victor doesn't seek compromise, the loser does. To think otherwise is to switch places. Furthermore, compromise per se is irrational. You only compromise depending on what the issue is, and what the compromise means for the broader picture.
The Democrats have far more Senate seats up in two years. The Republicans control much more redistricting after tonight. And this will be spun as a lost.
Would you rather be us today or them?
Ping!
But, but, but, Obama said in 08 that it was dead!! Huh?? You mean we ain’t dead after all?? Hehehehehehehehehehe!!
Oh, and to America. . . . . THANK YOU . . . . from the bottom of my heart for WAKING THE HECK UP!!! Thank you!!
Ditto!
Amen! Even so, come Lord Jesus!
Sticking up for firm limited government principles will cost us in some districts but I think it is self-evidence that we really aren’t winning anything at all should we abandon them.
Over the last 100 years we have lost so much ground to progressives its not even funny to tell ourselfs we been winning much less holding our ground in this war.
If we don’t push back if we don’t reclaim the ground that we lost long ago, we will never cease to lose this war until such time that the wealth of the government collapses onto itself.
