HORSERACE, BARACK OBAMA

For Republicans, a Welcome and Resounding Win in Georgia

Wow. A fourteen point win for Republican Saxby Chambliss in Georgia.

As Ruffini and Dayton point out, when Obama was on the ballot in November, Democrat Jim Martin was within three. Obama was worth 11 percentage points? Soren Dayton concludes, "when the Democrats try to push through outrageous things like card-check, significant tax-increases, etc., all we need to do is point to tonight. When progressives were on the ballot, not just a celebrity, the progressives were roundly rejected."

That's not all Republicans need to do, but yes.
