Some thoughts on the election......

The media is in full spin mode.

I think that no rational person was particularly surprised at Tuesday's outcome. (unless, of course, you watch the mainstream media)...

I think that EVERYONE was surprised at just HOW LARGE a shellacking the Democrats took yesterday. But we're not going to see a Bush-era "we got whooped!" level of candor from the Democrats. It'll be "statistical", "not unusual", "an average mid-term". (Of course, they HAVE to say this, in order to spare their very frail and fragile supporters from apoplexy, self-medication and extra therapy sessions).

And, Republicans won't be gloating. Happy, yes. Gloating, no. Remember, historically it's the Democrats who are as sore at winning as they are at losing. Bitter, hostile.....no matter the outcome.

Let's be clear, right now:

This election was not so much a repudiation of Obama. Nope.

This election was a CLEAR rejection of Socialism and Socialist policies.

And, this election proved something else (in my opinion, the most important point):

As long as Americans are vigilant and willing to fight, Socialism will NEVER, EVER be the governing policy of this great nation! That was demonstrated on Tuesday. And, it MUST be demonstrated continually!

A few notes, though, about the election:

- A few remarkable outcomes: Mia Love, Scott Walker, Jodi Ernst, Cory Gardner......

- Biggest idiots of the night:
              1. Maness (LA). This Tea Party candidate has now forced a December runoff. It will be costly and may very well hand Louisiana back to Democrats. A note to Maness and those who voted for him: evidently, you prefer a Democrat win. Idiots.
              2. The New Hampshire GOP; for nominating Scott Brown. RINOs lose, folks. And Brown has proven himself a RINO at best; a garden variety Liberal in reality. Idiots.
              3. Robert Sarvis (Virginia). Libertarian candidate who CLEARLY wanted a Democrat to win, since, in that VERY tight race, he took 2-1/2 points away from Ed Gillespie. Moron.

- So far, the tally is: Senate seats (Republicans +7), Governors (Republicans +3), House seats (Republicans +13).

- Noteworthy:
     - Pro-gun-control candidates got their asses handed to them.
     - Pro-life candidates won BIG!
     - Sandra Fluke lost....BIG.
     - Reid got his ass handed his walking papers (of course, NOW he wants to "work together").


....all for now....
