Needless to say, when they do shake off their collective hangovers, they'll go to all sorts of lengths to minimize what happened, not to mention belittle the results.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 The GOP had HUGE hopes for NJ. They (both) spent mega-bucks and polluted our airwaves for a full 11 months on it - and some of the nastiest stuff I've seen, too.

And then ran his "paid for by..." line in TINY print along the bottom, like they were embarrassed by it. Anyway, the GOP were really hoping for NJ and everyone from Guliani to Pat Buchanan were crowing that they were going to take it. Of course now they're all putting on the brave face about "well, the Democrats just retained it." Okay.

What's Bush's approval rating now with The American People? How is it trending? Have I just not noticed those threads?
