It seems that it definitely does mean something nationally from what I've been reading. Even the Democratic leaders are admitting it was a wake up call.

Dems, incumbents get wake-up call - Yahoo! News

People voted Democrat in response to the Bush Administration in the 2008 elections and now they're voicing their displeasure with what the Obama Administration has (or has not) done so far.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
