"The outcomes set up a battle for power between competing wings of the Republican Party. Call it the establishment vs. the tea party, or the gubernatorial wing against the congressional wing. This competition is less about ideology or policy -- there is no disunity, for example, when it comes to the party's dislike of President Obama's Affordable Care Act -- than about purity vs. pragmatism, tactics and strategy. Or, as Christie has put it, it is about winning an argument vs. winning elections." Dan Balz in The Washington Post.
@davidfrum: Wow, did Virginia ever not want to vote for Terry McAuliffe, if the GOP had offered any plausible alternative
