I think the lesson from 2010 is that 40 million fewer people voted in the 2010 elections than the 2008 Presidential elections.

Very happy to NOT have a teabagging a&$ as my governor.
What are you trying to say here? Are you calling conservatives racists?

Barely, and they are heading into 2014 at risk of losing the House. We're you excited to watch the Republicans lose so many seats in 2012?

I honestly think that you might be oversimplifying it a bit, and it's strange that you only focused on abortion and on abortion-related topics here. Was there really nothing else which caused Cuccinelli to lose in Virginia? Also, isn't Christie Christie politically anti-abortion? Also, wasn't/isn't George W. Bush (who win Virginia twice) anti-Roe?
