Terry McAuliffe suffers a devastating loss and the blame lies on House Progressives, President Joe Biden, Sen. Karen Sinema (D-AZ) and Sen. Karen Manchin (D-WV). The failure to pass Biden's Build Back Better agenda, voting rights and police reform cost the Democrats dearly.

On top of that Virginia goes back to "toss up" in 2024 thanks to the Republicans winning back the state.

Republicans and the insurrection doesn't stop at the U.S. Capitol. It went to the ballot box and it was embraced by the former president. Washed Up 45 and Republicans were driven by culture wars, misinformation and racial angst. We are closing on 800,000 Americans dead from the coronavirus.

Yet, that doesn't seem to phase Republicans. They just hate Biden, mask mandates, immigration, cancelling "free speech" and socialism.

Karen Youngkin won by five points in a state that Biden carried by ten points.

Youngkin, a first-time candidate who hails from the business wing of the Republican Party, narrowly defeated former Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe in a statewide contest with plenty of national implications. Tuesday’s election in Virginia, a one-time battleground but still competitive state, is seen as a key barometer ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, when Republicans aim to win back control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, where the Democrats hold razor-thin majorities.

And Republicans see Youngkin’s emphasis on tapping into the anger of parents over decisions by their local school boards as a blueprint of how to run campaigns in next year’s elections.

Youngkin based his attacks on "big government" and inflation. Inflation has hit the wallets of many Americans and Biden can't fix the problem due to Congress' failure to pass his agenda. 

Young kept Washed Up 45 at a distance and kept hammering critical race theory in schools. The culture war became an issue for Republicans.

Highlighting his full-court press on education, Youngkin in his victory speech early Wednesday morning stressed that "we're going to embrace our parents, not ignore them. We're going to press forward with a curriculum that includes listening to parents."

But amid a year and a half of frustration over school closures and mask mandates due to the coronavirus pandemic and the push by conservatives nationwide to target race-focused curriculum, including this year’s well-publicized battles in Northern Virginia’s Loudoun County – ground zero for the education culture wars – Republicans now see education and parents’ rights as a winning issue to try and recapture suburban voters who fled the GOP during Trump’s White House tenure.

An unforced error by McAuliffe further fueled the GOP fire, as Republicans spotlighted a clip from the second and final debate between the two candidates where the former governor said, "I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach."

In the weeks after the clip went viral, public opinion polls in Virginia showed education surging to become the second most pressing issue on the minds of voters. And the same surveys indicated that McAuliffe, who kicked off his gubernatorial campaign at a public school in Richmond as he spotlighted his education proposals, had lost his advantage on the issue.

While taking a drubbing in Virginia, and in New Jersey, where Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy holds a razor-thin margin over Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli the day after the election in a heavily blue state, Democrats publicly say they "will not be deterred."

"We will get right back to work. As we say in South Carolina: while we breathe, we hope. Starting today and every single day over the next year, Democrats will remain laser-focused on delivering for working families and making our case directly to each and every voter," Democratic National Committee chair Jaime Harrison insisted.

The Democrats need to fight dirty. We can't be the party of facts when we're getting crushed by lies!

The Republicans using white parents frustration as a key to winning. The Democrats might as well abandon the tie to Washed Up 45 strategy. They need to stop catering to white gentrification politics.

Stay focus on the issues that matter to all Americans. Don't often count Black men, white women and Hispanics as the key to victory. 

In other words, listen to Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC)....Stop sloganeering!

The House Progressives, Manchin, Sinema and Biden will doom the party going into 2022.
