Conservative Mike Pence has won the governor’s office in Indiana, despite a stumble by Republican Senate candidate Richard Mourdock.
With 87 percent of precincts in, the former congressman had 50 percent of the vote compared to 46 percent for Democrat John R. Gregg.
Pence will replace term-limited GOP Gov. Mitch Daniels.
Pence is former chairman of the House Republican Conference and also former leader of the conservative Republican Study Committee. He’s also a member of the Tea Party Caucus.
Republicans also picked up a governor’s seat in North Carolina, with the victory of former Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory.
McCrory becomes the state’s first GOP governor in 20 years.
Who cares? We’ve lost America, so what does one governorship matter? There’s no way to recover from this election.
You might want to take a look at Indiana and what’s going on there.
Who is the smartest politician in America?
Paul Ryan, who ran for his seat at the same time as he ran for vp and won. At least he’ll still be involved in the doctrinal fight with the marxists in DC.
I am glad to say good bye to mitch!!!! Bye, I am glad Democrats have the Senate and we still have 4 more years of progress.with Mr. Obama.
The only people in Indiana who have to say good-bye to Mitch, are those who can’t get into the best university in the state. I’m guessing you’re a Hoosier?
We kicked Obamas ass here in North Carolina and we have a new Republican Governor.
Taught the Democrats not to ever hold another National Convention in our state.
Old Civil War phrase: “We despise you, Sir.”
Maybe he can be the one to lead a return to federalism and a rejection of unconstitutional federal overlordship.
It’s well past time for states to just say NO to unconstitutional federal legislation like Obamacare. When the Constitution was ratified the states didn’t agree to become subservient to the federal government.
We need to elect strong 10th Amendment conservatives to State offices who are willing to do what is needed to seize back powers that the federal government has usurped.
It is the duty of our states to protect us from the predations of the federal government and other states.

So Indiana voted for Mitt Romney, Mike Pence, Harry Reid and Obamacare.
Talk about cognitive dissonance.
You do know that Harry Reid represents Nevada don’t you.
I think he means voted for a democratic senator, who would keep Harry Reid in charge. Actually, I don’t think it’s inconsistent to have a Republican governor and a democratic senator. Like North Dakota, you can have the dem senator bring home the goodies paid for by taxpayers in other states while keeping your own taxes low. You can have it all!
“Lord forgive them. They know not what they do.”
This will not end well for the American people. Gird your loins & prepare for pending catastrophes.
