Oops!
Republicans win governorship in Virginia. How about that.
Republicans win governorship in New Jersey. How about that.
Can't wait to see NY-23.
On to 2010 and the cleansing of our nation of these effing socialists!

They're calling it for Owens and Hoffman appears to have lost by 4%. But Scozzafava took around 5%.
Two out of three ain't bad, but NY-23 is indicative that there's much work left to be done.
My Biggest Surprise is that Christie won outright with no recount possibility. I remember the 1981 Governor's Election her in NJ, the margin was about 1300 votes, mostly due to the Democratic Candidate NOT cutting deals with some County Leaders, allowing the deceased vote to sit it out that year. I expected 2 out of three with Hoffman "in the House" - sorry to lose that one. I do however live in NJ so can certainly live with the election results.
And, I believe the dem won in California. Does anyone know those results?
So Obama has two more in the house?
But in Pa. I believe a lot of Republican judges won.
Ultimately on the national scene - the Dems picked up 2 house votes, which is bad for us on the right. Governors don't really affect national politics much, and I have a feeling both the NJ & VA Repubs will turn out to be Crist-esque RINO's.
Still a lot of work to do before 2010.
It will take big time $$$ to win the nation back.
Mr. Mojito,
I agree on the pick ups, although the California district is very liberal and the Hoffman thing had the Scozzafava interference and he came pretty close.
But I disagree on Va. and N.J. Those guys ran on a lower taxes, less government spending, anti what's going on in Washington agenda and won handily. And governors choose senators if there is any vacancy. From what I understand Virginia picked up all over the government. That is amazing. This state went easily for Obama and company. This is a rejection of Washington vote, and a regret for past mistakes vote, I believe. New Jersey is always liberal, liberal, liberal. I have good hopes for Christie. I do not believe these are rinos. I hope I'm not disappointed.
But I would so much have preferred that Hoffman won. He will next time.
I wonder what will happen in Washington tomorrow with Michele Bachmann's idea.
And will they pass health care crap on Friday as they hoped? I hope not.
Incidentally, about that Republican party must be a big tent or else advice from liberal commentators, (and don't you just love their concern?) Christie won independent voters two to one.
