"Tuesday's election results: A wake-up call to Democrats?"
Is this the beginning of the end for Democrats? It is if you ask Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele. Steele said of Tuesdays election results, "It sends a clear signal that voters have had enough of the president's liberal agenda."
I dont know if Id go that far Mr. Steele, see, the majority of the victories Tuesday night belonged to Democrats including Bill Owens win in New Yorks 23rd congressional district, an office that no Republican has lost in over a century. Also, according to CNN, a majority of New Jersey voters said President Obama had no effect on their vote.
What Tuesday night's election results do show however, is the Republican party isnt quite as dead as recent media reports would lead the electorate to believe and that Democrats need to unify as a party and stay focused if they want to maintain the momentum and the majorities they've built.
The first Republican victory of the night occurred in Virginia and belonged to Bob McDonnell. McDonnell became is Virginias first Republican Governor in 8 years. He won with 59% of the votes to Democrat, Creigh Deeds 41%. Many pointed to Barack Obama's win in Virginia a year ago as a sure sign of victory for a Democrat. They neglect to realize Barack Obama was the first Democratic Presidential candidate to win Virginia in 44 years.
The second and final Republican victory of the night took place in New Jersey and went to Chris Christie. Christie won with 49% of the vote to Democrat, John Corzines 45%. President Barack Obama came out to personally rally for Corzine and at one rally attempted to remind voters that this economic crisis, which wass key to many voters, didnt start on Jons watch."
Here are Tuesdays full election results according to CBS News:
