We were apparently slaughtered in several state houses and the repugs will control majority of governorships. Isn't it the job of the States to implement much of the Health Care reforms?

This is the new lot going in there now that want the anti gay amendment, gut/cut health agencies spending, but give tax incentives to corps to bring jobs here etc, that will leave in a few years like Dell did.

The new state senator for our district is another dick, Rick Gunn, rich lobbyist ......
Sorry for rept edit, edit for clarity, I hope.

2. And not by a little bit either.

I knew we were in danger of losing the Senate, but not that we could go from a 30/20 majority to a 31/19 minority.

Redistricting is really going to suck.
