The only news of note in yesterdays' elections
is that Palins' endorsement and the birther crowd could not win in what may be the most republican district in America!

5. Exactly. Conservative, but not crazily so. That is not a welcome reality to Palin et al.
Then again, neither is gravity.

3. Yup. NY-23 is a huge victory. It has been in Republican hands for more than a century.

4. Unfortunately, the news doesn't think this is news.
Which is what I predicted last night.

7. It was great that her candidate lost,
but to be fair, this was FAR from the most Republican district in America (voted for Obama in '08)!

8. It was close, hopefully this inspires her to endorse more so middle America can stay away
