Tuesday’s sweeping victories in Virginia to regain control of that commonwealth’s House, Senate and Governorship prove Democrats are prepared to restore civility to the American political landscape.
Even in the deep-red state of Kentucky, Trump’s “Mini-Me” toady, incumbent Governor Matt Bevin couldn’t leverage visits by the President or Vice President to retain enough of Trump’s 30 point margin to hold his seat. Maybe too many Kentuckians read the transcript?
Democrat Andy Bashear upset the sitting governor in a deeply red state long BEFORE any remaining moderate Republicans start to figure out that playing a patsy to Putin is well, a little um, not so good.
As Democrats, we have a lot of work ahead, but the logjam of obstinance and obstruction may be about to crumble.
