We dig the guv here at LP. And the prognostication, pro and con, about a possible 2012 candidacy is popping all over the place.

Hunh?

56 percent of Virginians said that the president was not a factor when it came down to their vote. In New Jersey, that number increased to 60 percent

So does that mean that 44 percent in Virginia and 40 percent in New Jersey thought it was about Obama?

I was sitting at my table this morning, looking over my schedule for the day, when Mister Reality came by, poured himself a coffee and took a seat.

"I suppose you are feeling pleased with yourself this morning." he began. When I said nothing but raised an eyebrow, he clarified. "Politically, I mean."

"Well,", I ventured. "New Jersey and Virginia were nice results, though I have to say I was cheering for Hoffman in New York."

Relying on exit polling in the NJ and VA gubernatorial races yesterday, ABC News has concluded that yesterday's overwhelmingly negative results for Democrats should in no way reflect on the sheer beauty and grace that is President Barack Obama (emphasis mine):

All the poll-tracking is over. All the speculation about the meaning of the 2008 election is over. All the wondering about the vitality of the Obama magic is over. Elections have a nice way of clearing the air of prognostications and predictions. We have results. We have actual votes, not polls of possible voters. And the lesson this year is very simple.

Independent voters utterly loathe the Democrats.

There really is no other way to spin it.

The news for Republicans and conservatives was pretty good with most of the elections yesterday with a landslide for the Virginia GOP and a great win in New Jersey. Conservatives and Republicans did well in other parts of the country, too. One of those other areas was in Maine where the voters rejected a gay [...]

The same day his party got shellacked in Virginia and New Jersey, and the two candidates he campaigned heavily for lost big-time, the Obama White House was hosting contestants from an NBC program called The Biggest Loser.

...Er, not really, but the headline sure grabbed you. We're not so ignorant here as to believe that these historic election losses for Pres. Obama and his Democrat minions will quell their thirst for power and perpetual need to oppress Americans rich and poor, young and old. But this is what one writer at CNSNews.com proclaimed:

At least they are in Virginia. In case you have not already heard, the governor's race has been called for the Republican candidate, Bob McDonnell. Actually the GOP slate did great down the ballot in Virginia. Still waiting on New Jersey, which was too close to call when I last checked.

Well, it's finally election day, and in New Jersey, the Democrats are doing what they've been doing for years -- finding new and clever ways to steal the elections.

As a long-suffering, exasperated Conservative New Jerseyian, it gives me great satisfaction and a profound sense of relief to join thousands of my fellow citizens to humbly report the following:

In a political upset of near miraculous proportions, Republican challenger Christopher J. Christie has ousted incumbent Democrat Jon S. Corzine to become Governor of the State of New Jersey.

Those in the media are spinning hard in anticipation of Republican wins in some key races today. Many news reports will try to lead you to believe the outcome at the polls should be ignored and the focus should be on Republican divisiveness or that any Republican wins are outliers, with absolutely no significance or relation to the mood of the country as a whole. Don't believe it.

Where did all those $billions and $billions in "stimulus" money go? CNBC managed to chase down a few $million:

Dems are still sitting on the vast majority of the cash that was supposedly so urgently needed, in hopes it can be used to buy support before the next election. Maybe they should have gotten off to a faster start spreading it around in Virginia and New Jersey.

The fix is in to save New Jersey's failed governor, the Goldman Sucks alumnus Jon Corzine. In case Comrade Obama rallying his crack-addled base in the slums of Newark and Camden doesn't do the trick, ACORN has been called into action. Big Government reports:

We all know Barack Obama has no inhibitions when it comes to expressing his political point of view.

This is especially apparent regarding his outrage toward the greed of Wall Street.

Since his election, he has been a rabid critic of CEOs and board members alike. None have escaped his wrath. Be they from banks, brokerages, financial consultants, or private industry, he has shown his disgust for all.

Although the Ditherer in Chief continues to campaign for New Jersey's skeevy governor while our troops in Afghanistan hang flapping in the breeze, historians are encouraged to squirrel away pictures of the two together. If a Dem can even come close to losing in New Jersey, which for years has made a policy of driving the productive out of the state, Corzine must have political leprosy — unless the tide is already turning against socialism.

Compliments of John L.
