CNN banner this morning:
Democrats misjudged the nation's mood
No shit, CNN, and you misjudge the nation's mood every single day.
CNN looks downright reasonable, but let's take a look at MSNBC's banner this moring. How ya like this racist trash?

Go, Virginia! Having lived there for a while long ago and having watched the gradual bluing of the state government from a distance, this is great news all around!
Our daughter, who now lives in Virginia, doesn't usually follow elections too closely, but she voted yesterday and called my wife to make sure she remembered to vote, too, in our local election here in Georgia. After some multi-million dollar chicanery (or incompetence) having to do with a local transportation project, all of the incumbents on the ballot were voted out. They claimed it wasn't their fault, but their lack of oversight contributed to the mess.
Yes, the ability to vote and hold people responsible is a great thing!

If the Hispanics keep this up we may be getting a closed and secure border soon! I have always said pigeon holing Hispanics as all voting Democrat is very short sighted assumption.
quote:
Republican Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin garnered more support from Hispanic voters than Democrat Terry McCauliffe, a Fox News exit poll shows.
According to the poll, 54 percent of Hispanic voters backed Youngkin and 45 percent cast their ballots for McCauliffe — a nine percentage point difference for Virginia’s fastest-growing ethnic group.
