My election projections left a lot to be desired. I lowballed the number of seats that Republicans would take in both the U.S. House and the Minnesota Legislature by a lot. But I can take some comfort in the fact that the takeover of the Legislature also shocked the professional pundits. It should make for an interesting legislative session. It will be doubly interesting because our next governor may not be sworn in until the session is nearly over, depending on the length of the recount process. Pawlenty has already offered to stay on as governor until the matter of his succession has been resolved. That assurance was enough to make state Republicans swoon with adoration.
