Some Idle Thoughts

It’s a bloodbath in the House. However, that is not yet been proven to be the case in the Senate. It’s still too early to say. Ohio looks pitiful in the House and Senate, but pretty good in the governor’s race, which is the most important. My initial assessment is that we’re getting killed in the midwest in any district that doesn’t have a substantial number of racial minorities. This is basically what I feared based on the resiliency of the Birth Certificate “secret Muslim” crap. This is a culture war, and we just took a standing-eight count. There are some surprises for the Republicans though. They might lose the state house in South Carolina, and there are a couple of House seats that might fall that people weren’t thinking about. Overall, though, we’re going to be in pitched combat over the next two years, fighting off a pit bull of hate.
