Obama Backlash Begins In Virginia
Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 9:46AM 
Less than a year into the era of Obama's socialist revolution for America it seems the political backlash has already begun in earnest. Two elections, in Virginia and New Jersey, look like presaging a strong grassroots reaction against the kind of 'change' Barack Obama is bring to the US.
Both states went blue last November. Both look like going red this November. Though New Jersey looks a close run thing, the Republican's Bob McDonnell is currently 14 points ahead in the polls. This in a state that went 53% to 47% for Obama just a year ago.
It is clear that many pundits do see this week's vote in Virginia very much as a litmus test for national opinion - precisely why the Obama administration is apparently preparing to the throw its candidate under the bus by claiming he ran a bad campaign.
There can be little doubt that when America voted for 'change' Obama-style it had not reckoned on 30% of the private sector undergoing a government takeover by October 2009, with a further 18% threatened by the upcoming healthcare bill. More on that next, next post.
