Congratulation to NE for keeping its sanity - and can the party take the GOTV organization in these

states as a model. Here is something that from bluemassgroup.com I subscribe totally.

Here's hoping that, as Democrats elsewhere sift through the wreckage of what happened tonight, they look to Massachusetts to see what can actually work. The GOTV operation assembled by the combined efforts of the Deval Patrick campaign, the state Democratic party, and Organizing For America, worked brilliantly. It should be a model for 2012 around the country. And the top of our ticket here ran a largely positive campaign in which he stood up for what he believed, and never tried to pretend to be something he wasn't.


In this red wave, an area of the country kept its sanity and send back to the Congress a totally blue delegation: New England with the exception of New Hampshire.

MA sent back its 10 congresspeople, CT sent back its 5, Rhode Island 2, Maine 2, and Vermont 1.

Unfortunately, we are not large enough to counter the rest of country. But still, congratulation New England.

1. We are our own little land of reason I guess. CT went bluer then ever, Malloy will win
once Bridgeport and New Haven are totally counted this morning. I wonder why we didn't go red in any areas, I mean the economy is bad for us here too.

The sane vote was split between the Democrat and a strong independent candidate.
