From NRO’s The Corner:
No one else seems to have noticed yet, but Alan Mollohan (D., W. Va.), who twice voted no on a federal marriage amendment and earned a 63 percent approval rating from Human Rights Campaign, was just ousted by a man (Michael Oliverio) who strongly endorses “traditional” marriage.
Conservatism is surging, it would seem – even in some quarters of the Democrat party.
People are furious with government – tired, that is, of government officials routinely ignoring the clearly expressed, popular will. Mollohan fell afoul of this. So did Bennett in Utah – I’ll bet that Specter does in Pennsylvania, and its 50/50 that McCain will survive his challenge in Arizona.
Throw away all the books about politics – get ready for a very wild ride in 2010.
