Conservatism wasn’t on the ballot last night.

What the American people wanted was to stop the Democrats.

Whether the GOP does that is something we’ll find out over the next two years.

The “War on Women” was on the ballot and we told them to go blow their noses.

I disagree to a large der\gree..although I agree the GOP has to do something to build on this over the next two years to really get national competitiveness back.

First, governors absolutely ran on conservative ideas and won in WI, MI, FL, and others. Secondly, in the Senate races, while they did not run on big conservative ideas, they did run on general principles of conservatism and overreach of government. Obamacare's failure was part of every single campaign which is the largest issue out there pitting conservatives and liberals. It was not a Reaganesque vision presented, but a strong rebuke of big-government...a central tenant of conservatism that wins when used effectively in campaigns.
