You will be seeing a re-alignment.  What that will look like is still too early.

Yesterday looked a lot like 1976.

New Leaders, new message.

Mainly it's time to drop the practice of trying to "ban" things, we can do better. We can do the job by leaving the big social issues to the states, and stop trying to amend the US constitution to our social tastes. We need to stand for strong economic strategy and more personal freedom. We need to defend the 2nd amendment w/o going nutter about guns. We need to emphasize conservation over environmentalism, and most of all promote FAMILY values, not radical right social polices.

True. 

One thing that I should point out is that two candidates in PA, Barletta (R, PA-11) and Morganelli (D, PA-AG) had, as a signature issue, an anti-immigration stance.  Both lost.
