Hot Air: Ed Morrissey – Lessons from Election Night
The mystique is gone
Republicans had their best night in five years yesterday, winning two governorships in states that went big for Barack Obama last year. They came closer than some would have guessed in holding a California district while running a no-name against the state’s Lieutenant Governor. And while the local GOP botched a district in New York just as bad as they possibly could, the news from NY-23 is actually not bad at all.
…That is a huge blow to Obama and his agenda, as Democrats now have to consider unpopular bills for ObamaCare and cap-and-trade in an entirely new light. If they fall in behind Obama instead of listening to their constituents, they will find themselves in retirement after the 2010 midterms. That’s the big lesson, and it will not be lost on moderate Democrats.
