The election is over, which means its time for pundits to cram the outcomes into a narrative. But why let the talking heads have all the fun? Below are some of the highlights from the electiontold by the numbers. Did the Blue Dogs lose big? Did Sarah Palins chosen candidates sweep their races? And how did incumbents fare in the most anti-incumbent election possibly ever?
Election results are as reported by The New York Times on Wednesday afternoon. Palin endorsement data comes from The Washington Posts Palin Tracker. Historical re-election rates come from the Center for Responsive Politics. Win rates were calculated by dividing the number of wins reported by the number of elections with a consensus winner announced.
Wow! Sarah is making a lot of mag. covers!
We must not rest on our laurels. There is much damage the Left and their useful minions can still do to our dear nation.
But, after the Republicans win the biggest mid-term election in 70 years, all the Leftists seem to be giving Sarah the credit. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
