Regardless of how the liberal press and others try to spin and downplay these races, this is huge! All three states went for Obama in the 2008 election--by big margins. Two of the three now go to Republicans--also by big margins. And, even though it looks like Hoffman may lose in his bid in NY, to finish as close as he apparently will poses big problems for Democrats (ignore comments to the contrary by liberal spin-masters).
How this will play out going forward…especially with the midterm elections in 2010 looming, is anybody's guess. My gut feeling is that Democrats have a lot to fear. One little-noticed fact helps support this: Turnout of Republican and Independent voters is up--substantially. That's telling!
Hoffman's performance in NY…effectively ousting the "Republican" candidate has been noticed by the Republican leadership. Will they "get the message" and stop nominating liberals and moderates…masquerading as conservatives? Time will tell, but one thing is certain. The Conservatives within the Republican Party are now engaged, fully awake, and aware of their inherent power. The Republican Party leadership had better take notice. They are being watched.
