Obama to Menendez: PANTS ON THE GROUND!

In the wake of Scott Brown's stunning defeat of Martha Coakley for the U.S. Senate seat previously held by Ted Kennedy, President Obama has directed his political team to oversee Senate, House and gubernatorial races in 2010, effectively benching NJ Senator Bob Menendez, the Chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Menendez probably knew Coakley was going down, as he spent Tuesday in New Jersey for Chris Christie's inauguration, rather than traveling to Massachusetts for a concession speach.

SaveJersey has the story.

This is good news for Republicans, as it is an indication that Obama has not yet heard the American people reject his socialist agenda. Just as the Obama team could not save Jon Corzine in NJ, a better political operation will not be able to sell a flawed agenda this November.

The bad news for America is that Republicans have not yet said or done anything to earn our good fortune. Obama keeps giving to us.
