about the same issues and more interestingly, terry mcauliffe has been around for a very long time and a former governor of the commonwealth of virginia. many democrats i talked to believe he underestimated this newcomer and most people have never heard of businessman glen koungwin and he caught on over the last couple of months, and the strength of his message and the appeal of an outer, but what happened is this pendulum of american politics swung back again. history will show that only once in the last four decades has the virginia, the governor winner been in the same party and usually it s the opposite and it is a referendum on the president s party. what this can be is a wake-up call for democrats to pass an agenda and explain their message more to the american people and it s also a big warning call for what history also shows is often a very bruising mid-term election for the president s party in power.
