Midknight Review -- new and revised: More about Tuesday's elections

More about Tuesday's elections

All and all, the state assembly elections in Mississippi went very well. A GOP governor was elected to replace the retiring Haley Barbour. The margin of victory was 61% to 39%. This may be the first time in recent history that a Republican governor replaced a different Republican governor in back to back terms. The voters of the state also approved voter ID and restrictions on eminent domain laws.

In Virginia, substantial gains were made by the Republican state party; not as big a victory as hoped, but a solid performance, nonetheless, in a state won by Obama by 6 points in '08.

Ohio saw the defeat of the mandated ObamaCare bill by a 2 to 1 majority. The state voted "Obama" by 5 points in the presidential election and is a "toss up" in everyone's book, including mine, for the coming election.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
