…but let me get a couple things out of the way before I take my shower and get to work.
1. Great night, obviously.
2. I think I have a slightly different take on the Senate situation than most. I don’t think the problem is simply that the Republican primary electorate picked bad candidates. There’s a deeper problem here, and that would be an overall lack of talent among the Republican candidates offered to the primary electorate. Which is not really surprising: after all, it’s hard to develop talent over the course of 2 lousy congressional elections.
3. But still: John Cornyn must go. I know it’s not entirely his fault. But it’s absolutely crucial that in 2012, the man at the helm of the NRSC have actual credibility with the Republican primary electorate in key states. Otherwise, we will see the same thing happen all over again.
More later.
