I guess it was about 10:00 PM when it was announced that Terry McAuliffe defeated Ken Cuccinelli to become the next Governor of the state of Virginia.
Almost immediately thereafter, the media pundits (you know the ones I mean) opined the loss as a “huge setback for the Tea Party Movement,” adding that “Virginia has been trending blue for some time now.”
Curious statements considering McAuliffe garnered less than 50% of the vote.
In fact, one could argue Cuccinelli would likely had won if not for presence of a third party candidate - - an argument you’ll hear from many conservative pundits today in the aftermath of the election.
And, an argument that’s probably true. But, let’s be clear, Ken Cuccinelli didn’t lose the race because Ross Perot…err…Robert Sarvis was in the race.

"So, I think that is something, I think, she has to recover from in terms of being a serious leader in the party. Still has a lot of loyalty, still can shape the debate, she still has a great political touch.”
“I think the way Palin would possibly resurrect herself — if that’s the right word or rehabilitate herself, I think is a better way of putting it — run for Senate in Alaska in 2014,” — I’m not urging that. I’m just saying, if I were her adviser, I would say, Take on the incumbent, you have to win a primary, then you have to beat an incumbent Democrat, it’s not easy.”Ok Bill, let’s set the record straight — Palin resigned from office due to the enormous costs and distractions of battling frivolous ethics investigations launched against her from (in my opinion) both sides of the aisle...
