really?  seems like a proud day for the republicans, the republican 
voters took a stand against the members of their party that had 
corrupted it, while the democrat voters didn't do much to punish their 
incumbents who voted for the pay raise. 11 democrat state senators, and 
58 democrat state representatives voted for the pay raise, and 1 
democrat governor signed it into law, how did they fare in their 
primaries(all members of the house are up for election, half the senate 
is, as is the governorship)?  so i ask, if both sides make a mess, that 
everyone acknowledges was a mess(the quick repeal by unanimous vote, so 
there's no debate over whether or not this is a mess.), but only one 
side makes an effort to clean up by punishing those who made the mess, 
then why should the other side consider it a good day or a proud day?  i 
call that a shameful day. 

and another thing, according to everything i see, the incumbents that 
lost their party's nomination were all in heavily republican areas, and 
lost to "more conservative" republicans, iow, people who are more likely 
to disagree with the Dems and still likely to actually win the seats in 
the general election, that can't be a good thing for the dems trying to 
get their policies through.
