I'm sure Democrats around the country are celebrating what is being sold as their "big wins" on Nov. 7th. And I'm equally sure that Republicans are concerned about those wins translating into Democratic gains in 2018. That remains to be seen. New Jersey was lost thanks to Chris Christie's shenanigans and Virginia was lost because Republicans put forth an establishment candidate, Ed Gillespie, who had lost his run for Virginia Senator and then decided to run for Governor. The ad campaigns in Virginia leading up to this election were some of the nastiest I've ever seen. I believe that Northam's win was largely due to his vote against Sanctuary cities. An unforced error by Republicans. 2 races does not a trend make, but it does put Republicans on notice. We, the people, have given you the opportunity to do the things we elected you to do. So far, you have failed miserably. Don't blow it. You won't get another chance and you are taking the American people down with you.
