The Start Of The GOP Slide

Tuesday's elections in Virginia and New Jersey didn't bring Republicans the good news they need after months of bad news. And while they argue that Democratic victories in the two states were about local politics, Democrats were quick to disagree as the 2006 congressional campaigns approach the starting gate.


It was very heartening to read/hear that the Democratic candidates came out ahead in the governor races in Virginia and New Jersey. A lot of slime was tossed in the last 24 hours before the votes, and it is good to note that the dirty ones did not prevail.

I hope this bodes well for our chances of taking out the ReThugs in control, in 2006.

& the "Intelligent Design" GOP school board in Dover PA was tossed out. Every one of 'em. As much for wasting taxpayer money in defense of the indefensible as for the issue itself.
