5 things we learned on Tuesday

[doxydad]

Six states held primaries on Tuesday, and once again anti-establishment candidates came up short in high-profile Republican showdowns.

That's a sharp difference with what we have seen over the last two election cycles, when establishment Republicans were overwhelmed by the insurgency in their own party and did little to stop it. But they appear to have turned the tables on the conservatives so far in this election cycle and have a string of victories to show for it.

Now bring on the DEMS!

1. The term "establishment republicans" is enough to make me puke. The pigs are all teabagger

conservatives. The US House is controlled by teabaggers.

2. I wonder why Marjorie Margolies chose to run.

She last had held political office in the 90s. I didn't think that she had a chance at winning. If she came in second place, I think that it's due more to the Clintons than to her.
