All the talking is done, today is the voting, tomorrow is the spinning. Discuss! ------- FWIW, I voted about 8 AM this morning, there was absolutely no line and I was in and out in 5 minutes. In 2008 I waited a good 20 minutes to vote.

Toomey is the Republican.
He was beaten like a bastard child in liberal Wisconsin. Looks like they'll have a GOP governor also! I'm lovin' it!
You really are a dumbshit.
If you step back and watch, they are all pretty much the same. You stupid summbitch...
To the uniformed and ignorant like you.
Agree wholeheartedly.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Boxer defeats Fiorina, Brown defeats Whitman.
thanks!
More bad news for the land of fruits, nuts and faggots!
Have a little "tea" with that and perhaps we'll have a 'party'? {{{chuckle}}}
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
exit polls showing Murray leading by 6 over Rossi, that would give the democrats at least 50 senate seats.
looks like Toomey will hold on to take Specters' seat in PA for the GOP.
Where are you finding this?

What party was Specter?
Scottish.

Washington state, how pathetic.
Ha ha...I remember that.
rent is 2 damn high.
Yes, Maes(R) is in the 9% range, and the GOP is about to be thrown onto the ash heap of history in Colorado. Excellent! It could all be part of a grand Palin strategy, to kill off the evil Republicans and run as a Constitution Party (or Tea Party) candidate in 2012. Sweet!
Fox just called both.
I don't remember that one. Was he the magic bullet guy?
http://www.rentistoodamnhigh.org/ turn up your speakers
Nevada results are now coming in - http://www.silverstate2010.com/ i'm signing off for the night, see you guys for the spin tomorrow.
Thanks for your updates. Good night.
eat your wheaties, asshole. I'm sure you'll NEED it, for all the spinning you're gonna' do.
Getting tired of the bozoed calcon following me around on the 'net, wanting to discuss "tossing salad." Sorry, you sick rump-ranger. NOT interested.
Better you than me lol
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
we have a close one here - about 500 votes separate the incumbent Democrat from his Republican challenger. This is a rematch of 2008 when the Democrat won by about 5k votes. Before that, the district was in GOP hands for 14 years.
My Prediction: 70 plus House Seats go GOP. 10 Senate Seats go GOP. See you after its over. Enjoy watching our country find its voice at last. 62 GOP gains in the House 8 GOP gains in the Senate Yep. Helluva night for the GOP. Surprised Californians and Nevadans voted to reinforce massive failure though.

Blame the tea party for promoting whack jobs. The Republicans should have won the Senate tonight save not for Buck, O'Donnell, Angle, and Miller.
Strickland was sent packing, Portman won HUGE, Chabot retook Cincinnati's district. I'm very pleased with what took place here in Ohio, with one exception. Mikey DeWine found a way back onto the government payroll, winning the State AG job. Another, closer to home race was the Brown County Commissioners race, our friend Marjorie (Democrat, btw) lost to county gadfly Rick Eagan (republican). Very disappointed, Marjorie was a huge help with our dog rescue efforts here.

'Blame'? You've lost your mind, I'm happy as hell the Tea Party is active. They now have an undeniable good track record overall, and have changed the GOP for the better. What this grassroots effort have acheived is amazing. My view is the GOP is better off not controlling the Senate, tactically. I would have rather taken it, obviously. But by just 'coming close' it means gridlock on the insanity of this Administration as it relates to cap and tax. It also means Owe-bama gets his first truly difficult political decision in January, does he dare veto extending the 'Bush' tax cuts? In elective office, I'd rather have a Democrat than a so called 'moderate' GO. Moderates are simply rank self absorbed opportunists. No thanks. I'd rather have a politician with 'known principals' so as to plan accordingly. Basically, better off without the Mike Castle's of the world IMHO. Under the radar today...the stunning gains at the Governor's level. Owe-bama won't have a chance in hell here in Ohio in 2012, especially after redistricting. You don't win Presidential election cycles without Ohio. We both know it. All in all, a big night for the GOP, a big night for the Tea Party. And Nancy Pelosi's 'House' has now received its foreclosure notice (laughing)
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
Rough night for Rasmussen as Nate Silver notes: You think keeping Harry Reid in power in Nevada and losing Colorado, Delaware and Alaska is "amazing"? Seriously? Poll after poll shows the most popular position is extending the cuts for income under $250k. Obama wins that point. Again, it's all gravy until its time to raise the debt ceiling. The GOP will have to take a stand come late February or March - does it raise the debt ceiling and piss off Conservatives, or does it refuse to raise it and destroy the country. As of last night, Republican leaders were ALREADY saying they will raise it.
That's true, and yet Bill Clinton won Ohio in 1996 despite a Republican Governor.
CO usually goes red with the trend.
Silver hedged his bets...and wants to crow? rotfl! Whatever.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
I think Owe-bama lost any hope of running 'against congress'. I think the Tea Party has had an amazing 18 month run thats changed politics for the better overall. I like the fact Americans are standing up and exercising their RIGHT to disagree with ANY ADMINISTRATION. I seem to recall a well known Senator named Clinton expousing this viewpoint just a couple of years ago...lol. The TP learns from its experiences. They now get a chance to catch their breath, review what worked - Rand Paul, Scott Brown, half a dozen Governorships, and review what didn't work. Its interesting to note those they backed that had little or no previous political experience did well, those that came onboard after losing previously - O'Donnell, perhaps Rossi, couple of others, didn't do well. Without the TP, the GOP would be down two Senate seats today, at a minimum. Brown and Paul. Here in Ohio, their impact is simply stunning from county level to Govenor and Senate. Not to mention they love the next Speaker of the House, John Boehner. As do I.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
With a booming economy, and a pathetic opponent in Bob 'Its my turn, damnit!' Dole, and a third party candidate. He barely won as we both know, not breaking the 50% mark in total votes, which is unusual as hell in POTUS politics, as we both know. That weird 'perfect storm' won't happen in 2012. And Owe-bama won't win Ohio anyway. He blew it.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
Exactly my point - you don't know who is going to win Ohio until you know who is running. And as far as the 50% mark, you do remember that Perot ran that year, right? We both agree that things are going to get worse next year, maybe a lot worse. The GOP just took control of the House and state governments in a "tsunami" Are you telling me they won't get blamed when things get worse "AFTER" they take office?
Are you telling me they won't get blamed when things get worse "AFTER" they take office? Yep, thats EXACTLY what I'm telling you. POTUS is held accountable for the economy. It doesn't make any sense, but it is how it works with voters. They get credit (Presidents) they don't deserve intellectually when its good, they get blamed when its bad. Trying to blame the House if your POTUS for economic conditions simply won't get traction with the voters, especially the Independents. How'd that 'party of No' stuff work last night? It didn't.

So it's "elect us and we'll cut spending and add jobs but we're not actually responsible for any of it" I really didn't think the Republicans would run away from responsibility this quick.

If the GOP candidate finishes with less than 10%, by law the GOP gets "minor party status" and is limited in future ballot position and funds.

#152. To: Badeye (#151)
Indeed, Rasmussen polls quite consistently turned out to overstate the standing of Republicans tonight. Of the roughly 100 polls released by Rasmussen or its subsidiary Pulse Opinion Research in the final 21 days of the campaign, roughly 70 to 75 percent overestimated the performance of Republican candidates, and on average they were biased against Democrats by 3 to 4 points.
