I live in one of the most conservative areas of New Jersey, and we now have a Democrat representing us in Congress for the first time in several generations.

This isn't an anomaly. Forget about the cities. The New Jersey suburbs are becoming a hotbed of leftist politics due to two trends:

1. Democrats moving here from New York City and Philadelphia.

2. Republicans who were born and raised here moving to places like North Carolina, Florida and Texas -- usually when their employers move out of the state and take their jobs with them.

I've traveled all over North America, and I can tell you that you'd be hard-pressed to find a dumber group of voters than suburban women in New Jersey.

My district used to be solid R until the Rats started redrawing the election maps, now my congressional district map cuts in to Hackensack just enough to give the Rat candidate a 2-3 point win. I can remember 25 years ago when the state had solid R majorities, things sure have changed for the worst since then. But at least last night we made some progress in battleground districts.
