Marathon Pundit: Ill. GOP gov candidate Kirk Dillard: Nervous after yesterday's elections?

Depending upon who you talk to, yesterday's elections were either a rebuke of Barack Obama's policies (my opinion) or they didn't have much to do with them.

But the wins by Republicans in the gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia, along with a narrow loss in a bizarre congressional race in upstate New York can hardly be called an endorsement of the president.

Which must make Kirk Dillard, a candidate for governor, a Republican I must emphasize, who appeared in an Obama campaign commercial last spring, very nervous.
