gibbs, and former republican new jersey governor and epa administrator christy todd whitman. senator, to you first. big picture. what went wrong for democrats this week? was it a lot of little things that were specific to virginia and new jersey, or is there a bigger problem here? >> well, i think -- >> it was both. >> obviously, it comes down to local politics and you can see that terry mcauliffe made some big mistakes when he said things like parents shouldn't be part of their children's education or shouldn't tell teachers what to teach at a time when that critical race theory, even though it wasn't being taught in virginia or anywhere else that i can figure, that's what people were focused on, so he was a little bit tone deaf. he didn't reach out to his base in the way that he should. here in new jersey, what happened was that jack decided -- jack ciattarelli, the republican candidate, decided that he wanted to hone very close to the republican base, the more -- the very much more conservative base, and what that tells you as far as i'm concerned is while you want to, bec
