Sandy GholstonI find it interesting (even amusing) how a large number of people on Fox Republican News Channel are declaring that this week’s election results are the beginning of this great renaissance for the GOP and the beginning of the end for President Barack Obama. All day, on the network Republicans love, host after host has been crowing about how great this is for the GOP and how the party is on the way back. We’ve been hearing stuff words and phrases like “winds of change,” “Republican revival” and “blueprint for success” as reported by Media Matters for America. So, tonight I tuned in to watch the O’Reilly Factor and Billy painted this as a smackdown for President Obama (wishful and biased GOP thinking), how people are rejecting him, rejecting so-called big government and going for the things Republicans supposedly stand for. It was all a bunch of laughable nonsense. Look, these elections are fought on the local level and state levels with local and state candidates. It’s not about President Obama, President Bush, President Clinton, President Lincoln or President Washington.
