HEY, indies... WANNA "caucus" with us Democrats?
Let´s break some more glass ceilings in 2012...

GOP Wins Key Governorships, Breaks Ethnic and Gender Barriers

Republicans smashed three glass ceilings by electing Nikki Haley in South Carolina...
Haley, 38, a Sarah Palin anointee... Having survived Republican allegations of adultery (what are those republican allegations as opposed to just allegations?) and a racial slur about her Sikh heritage, she is the first female Indian-American governor in the country, and the first woman to lead her state.

Susana Martinez in New Mexico...
a former 13-year Dona Ana County prosecutor who was also endorsed by Palin. She defeated two-term Democratic Lt. Gov. Diane Denish (not another woman?). 

and Mary Fallin in Oklahoma,
defeated another woman, Democratic Lt. Gov. Jari Askins. 


and
added another dash of diversity with Latino Brian Sandoval's Nevada win....
whose resume includes stints as a federal judge and chief gaming officer, buried Clark County Commission chair Rory Reid, better known as the son of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, to become the state's first Latino governor.

Democrats did manage a few victories of their own: Andrew Cuomo in New York; Deval Patrick in Massachusetts, Martin O'Malley in Maryland, John Hickenlooper in Colorado and Jerry Brown in California.

Four races--in Illinois, Florida, Minnesota and Oregon--remained too close to call early Wednesday.

LOVE THIS COUNTRY, REALLY...
