Although Democrats lost governorships in Virginia and New Jersey this week, the special election that a Democrat won in New York's 23rd Congressional District, after interference from national right wing Republican figures like Sarah Palin and Tim Pawlenty, may tell more about the future of the parties as I show in this video. The 3 short clips of the interview of David Plouffe on NBC's "Meet the Press" come from a segment broadcast on November 1, 2009, which is currently available online at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032608/#33572990 The short clip of Ron Brownstein appearing on ABC's "This Week" comes from a segment broadcast on November 1, 2009, which is currently available online at http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=8968291 The image of the 3 candidates who ran in New York's 23rd Congressional District ( Bill Owens, Doug Hoffman, and Dede Scozzafava) that I use in this video also comes from ABC's "This Week" The graphic depiction of the political history of New York's 23rd Congressional District that I use in this video comes from the well researched June 2009 blog entry at http://www.thealbanyproject.com/diary/6516/amazing-political-history-of-ny23
