Republicans are paying the price early for the albatross Donald Trump hang around their neck trounced in Virginia and the lazer thin margin win for the Kentucky governor. 2020 is looking bleak for Trump.

Virginia is on the broad path that leads to destruction. Not a big surprise to see the state swing Democrat.
Kentucky is an odd one, because a Democrat barely won the governorship (maybe; there's likely going to be a recount), but the other five down ballot elections went to Republicans, including the election of the first black Attorney General and the first black to serve in a statewide office in the state's history and the first Republican to serve in that role in 70-years. It's also worth noting that Kentucky has historically favored Democrat governors for whatever reason. Since 1851, 33 out of 43 governors have been Democrat.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

2. Virginia's new map makes Democrats the favorites to win the House of Delegates this fall. In 2017, a random drawing from a bowl to decide a tied race allowed Republicans to keep control of the chamber by a single seat. But the new map, which makes changes to 25 of 100 districts, unpacks African-American voters into many GOP-held seats, easing Democrats' path immensely.
The new map virtually assures the defeats of GOP Dels. David Yancey of Newport News (the winner of that random drawing) and Chris Jones of Suffolk, and gives Democrats an excellent chance to pick up Del. Gordon Helsel's open seat in Hampton. In addition, GOP Speaker Kirk Cox of Chesterfield and GOP Del. Chris Stolle of Virginia Beach newly find themselves in Clinton-carried districts.That's what

I'm reading, too, that Bevin pulled a Hillary and insulted a significant portion of the electorate when he made a number of disparaging comments about Kentucky teachers unions. But even with that drag on Bevin, Beshear, if he wins the recount, will have still only won by the very narrowest of margins.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
