Losers:
* A democratic governor from Goldman Sachs
* A democratic aspiring governor who promised to "opt out"
* A carpet-bagger supported by Sarah Palin and Dick Armey
Winners:
* Every democrat running for the House
I see this as endorsement for the relative progressiveness of the House dems, rejection of Democratic centrism, and rejection of the teabagger wing of the GOP.
It’s also something of a repudiation of current "beltway wisdom."

I’d agree. I’d add, a huge loss for the Palin wing of the party. They can take over the party, but they can’t win elections…
I agree.
Heads I win, tales You lose, or tales You lose aheads I win, or heads I lose tails You win, or heads You lose tails I win.
What the hell difference does it make, they just elected more of the same.
Good take.
