Ann Coulter’s bluster about how Dems should traditionally pick up many more seats in this cycle than they will have by the end of the night notwithstanding, the Dems won big tonight. Not only will they control the agenda for at least the next two years, they have picked up gubernatorial seats across the nation. Seats that were previously considered “safe” for Republicans went Democrat. The reasons for big Democratic wins will be debated over the coming weeks and months, but the overall message is clear — America wants a new direction. Now the real work begins. Time to “drain the swamp” and restore America’s faith in its government. Time to reach across the aisle and prove that the Democrats are bigger than their GOP counterparts. Time to reward hard work and not just investment. Time to prove the Democrats can be strong on defense and keep America safe.

Congratulations to Speaker Pelosi. A new day is coming for America.
