Sun Tzu once said, "when the enemy carves a path through your center and rolls up your flanks, this is expected and you should not read too much into it."
Mike Johnson: "What happened last night is blue states and blue cities voted blue. We all saw that coming. And no one should read too much into last night's election results."
