Expect all hell to break loose within the Democrat party, with powerful key factions at each others’ throats. Voters in multiple states repudiated the radical wing of the Democrat party that had seized control of the party’s agenda. (snip) The prospects for the Democrats’ Build Back Bankrupt bill ever becoming law just became vanishingly small. (snip) The specter of a blowout Republican sweep in 2022 now haunts congressional Democrats in any constituency that is not an urban stronghold already in the hands of a progressive or radical. If Virginia could swing more than 10 points, so could their state or congressional district.
Look for more retirements by Democrats

Now, the winning Republicans need to do what Dems have regularly done when they take over an Executive branch: Clean House.
Get rid of all Dem appointees and reverse or cancel any illegal executive orders.
Clean House!

Clean house? Yes. And govern responsibly with competence.

What we have to get through thick skulls is that none of this is about "democrats". It's about the Republic.
all the media wants to say is "it was a blow to democrats".

What was McAuliffe thinking?
He brought the Cackling Canadian, Kamala Sutra in, along with the morbidly obese, dentally challenged Stacey Abrams waddling in, and as the icing on the cake, he brought in the lesbian leader of the American Federation of Teachers.
If there was a 3 way popularity contest, all 3 would lose.

This is one of those days when I *really* wish I could turn on the radio at 11:07 and listen to Rush. I sure do miss him.

Exterminating European-Americans turned out to be a non-seller for McAwful, who couldn't wash the Clinton stink off of himself in time. It didn't help that he paid his Dominion hackers with rubber checks.

What was McAuliffe's last nail in his coffin was trying to dance on stage with the smelly old codger standing next to him.
I'm with one poster if Rush Limbaugh was still with us to witness this. Rush was the one who called McAuliffe the 'Punk' when tied to the Clintons.

FTA: "Why on earth would a swathe of moderate House Democrats agree to go along with it, when, by all appearances, they are already going to have their work cut out for them next year? Such as: What, exactly, does the Democratic Party think it is playing at?"
There are no "moderate" House Democrats. There are radicals and less radical enablers. The moderates will refuse to spend $3.5 TRILLION but will authorize mutliple packages to spend $5 TRILLION. This is a UNIPARTY game...the dopey public sees this multi-package deal as "moderate", probably bi-partisan, while the UNIPARTY sees it as profit.
It may be the election that broke The Squad and its fellow travelers. As mentioned, a year or three are an eternity in politics.

This should just be a light warm-up compared to what happens to demo-commies over the next couple years. They need to be obliterated. Or is that still too harsh for those suffering from normalization bias, ignorance and still not completely paying attention to what has happened and what is still going to happen?

I think the final nail in McAwful’s coffin was his declaration over the weekend that there were too many white teachers in Virginia. How many white democrat teachers decided to vote for Youngkin after hearing that?

The Author warns us the the Republican won Virginia because he kept Trump in the background. Just what does the Author believe the voters voted for? Mitch McConnell's soaring speeches featured on the front page of every paper? Romney's rally's on the steps of schoolhouses in Utah illegally teaching CRT? Lindsey Graham's march on America's Gitmo -- the DC jail?
The only person who has every showed up for the fight for Normals every day has been Donald Trump. He is the ONLY reason the Republican won last night.

If women are going to be the deciding factor in every election, this country is in worst shape than anyone can imagine. So if Donald Trump runs again in 2024, we're told women won't vote for him because he's mean. Never mind he turned this country around even with all the negative crap thrown at him, and with almost every person in the White House and Congress fighting him tooth and nail every step of the way. Women won't vote for him because he's sends mean tweets. Politics is a mean business, and Donald Trump is exactly the type of person needed in a position of power. He knows business, and he doesn't like people around him who stab him in the back, and now he knows how Washington works. God help those in D.C. who don't love this country and who try and derail his agenda to make this country better for everyone. Even for the wishy washy women who seem to think mean tweets are ugly.
