Election Day Roundup

George Bush went to bat for Virginia GOP candidate Kilgore on the night before the election, and his appearance must have carried as much clout as a signed endorsement from Martin Bormann for all the good it did him.

New Jersey GOP candidate Forrester waged a very low mudslinging campaign against an equal mudslinger, and still managed to lose to Corzine.

The Democrat Mayor of St Paul, Minnesota - who made the error of backing Bush - was trounced by another Democrat.

And to put the cherry on top of the rancid cake that the GOP had to eat last night - All four of the ballot initiatives put forth in California by Governor Schwarzenegger were beaten. So the special election in "Kalifornia" and all the valuable money spent that could have gone to better things in that state was wasted. Der Ahnold now has the same approval rating that Gray Davis had before he was recalled.
