Democratic talking heads would like us to believe that yesterday’s elections indicate some sort of trend. The NYPost’s John Podhoretz doesn’t see it:

To sum up: Incumbent party victories in two states and one city. A Republican state rejected Democratic initiatives. A Democratic state rejected Republican initiatives.

Don’t let the Democratic spin doctors fool you. Election Day 2005 has nothing to tell us about where the electorate is going in the wake of Bush’s terrible year.
