For once I think the pundits were correct - it was about the war - all of us wish it would have gone better and the voters are making all the "R"s pay regardless of an alternative plan by any of the "D"s. It's OK - if Republicans hold the Senate we shouldn't cry in our beer.
The coordinator for the GOTV that I've been talking to every night at the phone banks has been telling me for the last two weeks that the GOP was going to lose, and lose big.
She said the base was dispirited, not showing up and traditional allies like RTL weren't showing up to call or walk precincts.
I didn't believe her, because we had so many of the goofy "Rove, you magnificent bastard" posts here, but she was telling me what she was hearing in DC, and evidently it was right on.
I wonder how long the GOP leaders have known we were in for a shellacing?
