It wasn't just Independents who abandoned Democrats in New Jersey and Virginia. Senior citizens, fearful of the Democratic Party's attempts to cut Medicare spending to fund their socialized medicine schemes, turned on the Democratic candidates in both states.
The 60 Plus Association released a post-election survey conducted Tuesday night in New Jersey and Virginia.
"One year after a historic Obama victory, the wheels have come off the Democrat entitlement machine. The results from Virginia, New Jersey and New York clearly show the voters are angry and frustrated. They are demanding change and fiscal responsibility. Leaders in Washington would do well to heed this warning," said Jim Martin, president of 60 Plus. "Seniors played an important role in yesterday's elections, and they are motivated. There is a senior citizen tsunami flooding towards the halls of Congress and unless it subsides, those in charge will feel intense political pain at the polls come next year. We're putting Congress on notice, DO NOT CUT MEDICARE."
