Crumby night for Democrats, but here, my candidates won! But, where the hell were all those under 30 voters that were a major factor in Obama getting elected? Thinking about the large numbers of them graduating and not being able to find a job. Then there is DADT. Many other issues that probably have them ticked off.
But, in quite a few races in which Tea Bag candidates were defeated (main one would be Reid & Angle in Nevada, but also here in CA between Brown & Whitman), I see the Latino vote as critical. This is a voting block that I believe will make or break Obama for re-election. I love it that it is rising to a more powerful level in US politics. It's about time!
