A 60-plus seat loss in the House putting Republicans in control, and making a serious dent in the US Senate was one thing.
The fact that it was in a census year compounds Democrat problems tenfold.
Amid last night’s hoopla, Republicans won a net of at least 8 Governorships (plus Virginia and New Jersey from last year, at least 10).
And at least 17 state legislatures will have flipped from Democrat to Republican in last night’s wave.
That’s a major shift in who will be redrawing the lines for Congressional districts. Of the states that will be reapportioned, either gaining or losing Congressmen, Republicans now control a majority.
So, when the jerks on MSNBC, the Today Show, and other liberal wienie programs ferret out their prepared talking point of “voters won’t like Republicans either,” realize that these state-level victories just made it a whole lot easier to do two things:
1) Retain these seats.
2) Add more victories to them.
