and then just a year later, following, year bob mcdonald went on to become governor of virginia defeating his opponent by a whopping 17 points. that's a 23 point swinging points in just one year. and to put it mildly, this was seen as very bad news for democrats. just listen to how nbc opened its nightly news broadcast the day after the election. >> good evening, a year ago, we were talking about a sea change in american politics. tonight we are reporting a small change which could also be anonymous development for the year old obama administration. republicans were elected governor last night, two important states, but other than preferred both candidates to the democrats, were voters across the country last night trying to say something else? there is evidence of an angry electorate out there. >> that was not wrong. we remember what happened in the midterms in 2010, that night with brian williams referring to -- they were bob mcdonald and new jersey's chris christie. that was an even more stunning [inaudible] because of the unusual -- and not during a midterm year an awfully because it'

that night, what brian williams is referring to, two republican governors referenced were bob mcdonald in virginia, and new jersey's chris christie, that was a more stunning upset. the point here is that because of the unusual nature of virginia's off off-year elections, means the election is not held during a presidential election and not during a midterm year and it's kind of a swingy state in some ways the state acts as a bellwether for public sentiment. that would not be ununusual, this pendulum is what democratic politics look like in liberal democracies all over the world. you've got examples of some political leaders, german chancellor angela merkel who just stepped down or brazil's former president who's going to be running again that have been known to building lasting political coalitions that last years durably but for the most part what happens in france, italy, the u.k., swing back and forth, left and right with regularity. u.k. has had the conservative party file now. you've got this competitive back and forth system of elections. it's just how political gravity works in

republican bob mcdonald won the gubernatorial race in virginia by more than 17 percentage points. and chris christie became a national celebrity by winning in new jersey, despite that, democrats passed the affordable care act in 2010 and president obama was re-elected in 2012. based on that history, should we be careful to draw any major conclusions from just a handful of races? >> rev, if i were the democrats, i wouldn't talk about it anymore. there was a huge vote that passed for americans, especially in certain districts where those democrats need a win, they got one on infrastructure. who cares about virginia and new jersey anymore? that's yesterday's news. i really think that it's important -- yes, you want to do a recap of what happened and perhaps where things went right, where they went wrong, but move forward. this infrastructure bill is all about not just bridges and tunnels, but you got clean water, you got the electricity grid. you just spoke to a congressman from texas. texas needs an electrical grid. they should be taking that money. instead of members of agrees and

winning in 2009, getting bob mcdonald and chris christie across the finish line was not -- was not the beginning of what happened in 2010. there was a lot of -- a lot more work that had to go into that. in fact, i got in trouble, imagine that, for going out publicly when i was asked republicans going to take the house in november? and this was in like february or march. no, i don't know. i don't even have all the candidates who are going to be running in primaries yet. how do i know what house races we're going to win? so you just don't know. you got to still do the work in politics. you just do. and it's just like those first two clips where citizens participated. that's part of the work. and you got to do it. because if you don't, you get what we are going through right now and only next time, folks, it's going to be worse, dirt. it's going to be worse. >> well, i appreciate that and you know your way around it. and you're fun and sober, which we like. a little bit of both. you agreed to do this. i hope you'll come back and do it again. >> of course. >> we can make it a thing at the

that's what bob mcdonald and i did 12 years ago. and let's remember something. barack obama was 21 points to the favorable side when i won in 2009 in new jersey. this morning, joe biden is 6 points to the negative upside down in new jersey. in blue new jersey. so jack ciattarelli has a real chance to win this one tonight. i think youngkin has a better chance because he has moved up in the polls. but jack is closing strong and fast. it's happened in new jersey before. and i have my fingers crossed that i'm going to have a new republican successor when the polls close tonight. brian: really? ainsley: then there was crt and little girl raped in the bathroom emany by a boy wearing a skirt and transferred to another school and they ignore it and hide it the dad gets arrested for fighting back at school board meeting. then they are bringing in the fbi. i get it here why youngkin is doing so well. people hear that story and that narrative over and over and over and they want to vote against it. they want to stand up for children, the momma and papa bear movement. are w

in 2009, you had bob mcdonald win a huge election in virginia. you had chris christie shock jon corzine in new jersey. then in january, a man take over the white house the night after scott brown took ted kennedy's seat. it was like say morgue over there. so, here's my question. if you can have a redo, and go back to, let's just say, go back to that day that scott brown won on -- i have it here -- january 19th, 2010. what would you have done between then and the midterm elections when the tea party swept into power? because you guy has a couple of huge warnings, tea party still won. what would you have done differently? what do democrats need to do now in preparation for next year's election? >> yeah, that's a great question, thanks, for highlighting all of the days of the 2009 and 2010. >> it's important, robert, too, this is a shift of politics, of course, because barack obama two years later won handedly in an election. >> i rather enjoyed it myself. >> he says he enjoyed. >> the scott brown twist was -- that was really good. >> yes, how do th

in 2009 will republicans wanted mcdonald, was when obama was president biden was vice president. it was a shovel-ready stimulus bill. but democrat said, the reason we lost in chris christie wanda bob mcdonnell one is because we haven't done enough. we need to get obamacare pass. it did not pass until spring of 2010. democrats learn the wrong lesson then in the same path again. americans are paying more at the pump and more grocery stores, inflation has run away and all democrats are doing is passing trillions and trillions of dollars of additional spending. just like 2010 it's a precursor to next year's midterm. bill: is there a disconnect for what people voted for in the direction democrats are headed? >> i think the disconnect in terms of democrats in washington is a delay in delivering on the big promises and making a public show it was a self-inflicted wound bill. on the issues of that's what you're referring to the ap fox news vote cast, voters in virginia rank the economy is the number one issue followed by covid and then education in the economy look back this week, i thin
