This puts a major dent in Obama’s plan for big gov’t and big spending. Especially the healthcare initiative!

This will start the movement of gov’t gridlock.

Obama (and his administration) is on his way to being dead in the water.

I’m disappointed that the Democrats lost especially in New Jersey.

Virginia was a toss up.

I’m happy that the Democrats won in upstate New York where Palin and Limbaugh were not successful at keeping the district conservative.

We are seeing how the social conservatives are tearing apart the Republican party. Pretty soon it won’t be but a party of ranting religious Bible thumpers.

The battle became one of the most closely followed races in the nation, drawing in some of the biggest forces in politics in both parties. Republicans who viewed the race as a test of the party’s most deeply held conservative principles — including Sarah Palin, the former governor of Alaska; Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, a presidential hopeful; and grass-roots groups that have forcefully opposed Democratic economic and health care policies — rallied behind Mr. Hoffman.

The finger pointing among Republicans started on Wednesday morning. Some conservatives were blaming the Republican Party for the loss, saying that if they had supported a more conservative candidate all along, the seat could have been won.

The governors’ races do not affect the Obama agenda. Only a significant change in Congress will derail his agenda.

If the Republican governors implement drastic spending cuts that bring pain to the people of VA and NJ, voters will go for whoever proposes pork the next time around.

During an economic crisis, Republicans can’t afford to be fiscally conservative. So they’ll fall back on the Bible thumping.
