But Republicans did win in New Jersey and Virginia, so the gloating will accelerate.

Republicans will become even more insufferable than they have been in the past as they run Sarah for President in 2012.

The lesson of the night should be that competence wins over incompetence and negativity (New Jersey and Virginia) and that extremism loses (New York Congressional). As you can see from the posts here that lesson will not be learned by a Republican party that has made hate and volume a cornerstone of its policies since the days of Lee Atwater. They will not stop now. In fact Republicans, lead by Rush Limbaugh, will amplify the boasting and increase the hate levels as they ponder the possibility of inaugurating President Sarah Palin in January 2013.
