Energy bill soon as well. I thoroughly agree with Tom Friedman that the key to a prosperous 21st century america is leading the world in energy technology

 

I would expect support on energy bills. The $500 free check will pass too.

Rep. Shays (R-CT) defeated

 

Wow. Will the last Republican in New England turn out the light?

Al Franken up by 15K votes in MN.

 

Looks like the Republicans will keep MS.

 

Landrieu in a tough race, only winning by 15K votes. Only vulnerable Dem in the Senate at this point.

Murtha winning by 16 points btw.

It's all about Prop 8 in Cali now.

 

No is currently winning by about 31,000 votes. Here's to hoping that No can keep that lead.

I hope so as well.

Well Texas is sending Cornyn back to Washington. Noriega looked goofy, I really believe his looks doomed him. Sad but true

Just talked to a friend in MN and she said they were reporting Franken is up by only about 600 now.

Hopefully Coleman can pull this out.

Coleman's a scum bag, no offense.

And Franken is a pile of s***, no offense.

i was just about to write that al franken is a turd to the nth degree

One is inept scum, thou

I can't forgive Coleman for the way he won in 2002. Just like I can't forgive Chambliss for the way he won in 2002. I'm not a big Al Franken fan but I hope for the best with him tonight. It's not looking great though, down 15K votes at the moment.

 

 

Prop 8 will pass in Cali, I'm wagering, it's up 10 points right now. Still early though, but I'm guessing it passes. Which means legal marriages will be voided. That's very sad.

Ray of hope for the last thing worth following in my honest opinion.

 

Prop 8 CNN exit poll, 52-48 for No.

Prop 8's not looking good. What a joke.

That is sad. We'll see a recount in Franken/Coleman too. Less than 700 votes separate them.

 

Looks like Smith survives in Oregon.

I am thrilled that all three incumbants on our school board were voted out last night. That makes 6 out of the 7 seats having new members in the last two elections. Hopefully that means we can drum our superintendant and move forward.

same thing happened here in columbia, unfortunately here I don't have much hope for our new administrators.

 

 

as good a night as it was for Obama, don young and Ted Stevens were re elected, Norm Coleman probably is, Judy Baker loses to an absolute moron. IT wasn't the greatest night for congressional races.

Ted Stevens appears to have survived in Alaska as of now, although it's not official yet.

 

In other words, it appears highly likely that Governor Palin will get to appoint a Senator. Perhaps Senator Palin?

 

Georgia appears highly likely to go to a runoff election (no candidate getting 50%) once the absentee ballots are counted.

 

Minnesota has a 300 vote margin right now.

Did Bachmann get re-elected?

Cue the Bachmann Trials. Anti-Americans... you're on notice.

Ugh, between her, Murtha, and Stevens... wtf.

Mind-boggling.

And we have a brand new P.O.S. in Blaine Luetkemeyer so enjoy him, America. Thanks Missouri, you never...oops, sorry, you always disappoint.
