Today is Election Day in Virginia and New Jersey. New York is having a special election as well. News commentators both right- and left-of-center agree that the results today could set a precedent that resonates into the 2010 election.
And I couldn't agree with them more.
The November 3, 2009 elections fall exactly 40 weeks after the inauguration of President Barack Obama; exactly 40 weeks after Nancy Pelosi's Congress established a strong Democrat majority; exactly 40 weeks after the beginning of what was promised to be a "new direction" for the United States. That being said, a baby conceived on January 20, 2009 (Inauguration Day) would be born right around today.
In a very profound way, this is the baby of President Obama and Speaker Pelosi's policies, and delivery day is today. Being the happy parents, our chief executive and head legislator have a lot riding on these results. And tonight we all get to see whether their progeny leans red or blue.

Aaron you forgot to mention the CA-10 election. Also important to note is the democrat candidate does not even reside in the district, so despite there is no legal rule preventing him from running in the 10th it is clearly an unethical approach that much of the democratic party appears to display over and over again in the last 9 months of "Hope".
