[Ocotillo]

Yeah but I am rooting for Allen just because Manny wants him to lose so bad.

He's not a pedophile or anything is he?

Pedophile? No. Misogynist? Yes.

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah but I am rooting for Allen just because Manny wants him to lose so bad.

He's not a pedophile or anything is he?Well the anti-Manny bloc is a well-known and easily identified coalition, so that's valid enough.

He's not a pedophile, just an idiot and the second-worst campaigner in the history of Virginia -- after his opponent.

I'm on my second very strong drink and all of a sudden I care a lot less. Not really, fuck Allen! Goooooooooooooooo Webb.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I wish Nancy Grace was attacked by those pit bulls...

[JoeChalupa]

Rick Santorum is a class act and true gentlemen in politics.

[MannyIsGod]

The Indiana 9th is a huge race right now.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

I'm on my second very strong drink and all of a sudden I care a lot less. Not really, fuck Allen! Goooooooooooooooo Webb.

That's good info to file away for a later date.

Get Manny drunk...he stops caring. :lol

[whottt]

BTW, NBC called it for Perry.


Good job on this one crats...I don't know a single person that likes Perry, even hardcore conservatives don't like this tool.

I have no idea how you guys failed to get him out of office.

[MannyIsGod]

Rick Santorum is a class act and true gentlemen in politics.WHAT THE FUCK?

Put down the crackpipe.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Rick Santorum is a class act and true gentlemen in politics.

Without checking the wire to find out what he said...I'm guessing there's a tinge of sarcasm in your words.

[whottt]

Blaze not to interrupt this elcetrifying election...

But what will it take to get Rondo from you?

[MannyIsGod]

Webb is going to close the gap in Virginia. It is going to be close, but he's definetly going to close the gap based on where the precients that haven't reported are

[PixelPusher]

Without checking the wire to find out what he said...I'm guessing there's a tinge of sarcasm in your words.
just the typical "gracious concession speech" stuff. His kid was crying in the background.

[JoeChalupa]

WHAT THE FUCK?

Put down the crackpipe.

Put down the drink. Seriously, his consession speech was sincere and I really believe that. He said that Casey is going to do a fine job.
Why does there have to be anymosity?

[JoeChalupa]

Allen has it in the bag. The hype is over.

[whottt]

Chalupa is a throwback to the day when Democrats stood for more than belligerence and hositlity...

I told you Joe...taint your party no more.

Leiberman gets it.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

You learn something new every day:

"Santorum, that's latin for asshole", is a quote attributed to former Senator Bob Kerrey. :rollin

santorum

1. That frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex.

[JoeChalupa]

LIke I said. The republican base is coming out more agressive than the democratic base.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Blaze not to interrupt this elcetrifying election...

But what will it take to get Rondo from you?

The sudden change-of-heart from politics of Rick Perry, conceding the race to any of his three competitors.

[JoeChalupa]

Chalupa is a throwback to the day when Democrats stood for more than belligerence and hositlity...

I told you Joe...taint your party no more.

Leiberman gets it.

There are more old school democrats than you think. But I agree that Leiberman is more my kind of democrat, err..independant than the more liberal democrat.

[whottt]

The sudden change-of-heart from politics of Rick Perry, conceding the race to any of his three competitors.


Uncool!


Don't take Perry out on me...I don't like that fratboy either. He's the Republican Kerry.

How about the Gervin Jersey
My first round pick in next years draft(and it should be a high one from the looks of things)...
And I vote straight Democrat in the next election?(Unless it's Kerry).
I'll also promise to support AJ's jersey retirement(not sure if you stand for that)

You know, I would actually consider that. Let me think about it for the rest of the night.

[whottt]

Ok...I'll even throw in a decent F like KMart or Miller. Preferably Miller after tonight.

[IceColdBrewski]

This site seems to be the best for up-to-date information.

[JoeChalupa]

There was never even a doubt that Perry had this one.
But Bell ran a very weak campaign. Strayhorn and Kinky did their jobs to split the vote. Not that Bell would've won but I think he would have had a better showing.

[MannyIsGod]

Put down the drink. Seriously, his consession speech was sincere and I really believe that. He said that Casey is going to do a fine job.
Why does there have to be anymosity?Santorfuck is a dick and an asshole. That is the bottom line.

[JoeChalupa]

The republicans will spin the final outcome as a victory since it will not be the great victory the democrats and that damn liberal media predicted.
I'm glad the democrats will take the house but this will be touted as a victory for republicans. Just watch Rush and Sean insHannity push that argument strong for the next few day.

If I had gotten out to vote I was going to vote for Kinky, unfortunately I was caught up in an important arugment with TimVP today...would have been cool to see Willie put in charge of the commission for drug prevention or something like that.

[JoeChalupa]

Santorfuck is a dick and an asshole. That is the bottom line.

Yet a gracious asshole.

We are now having elections for the first time here in America.
And seeing as how I've made this possible,
you should support me in Staying the Course.

Or I'll just have to steal these elections fair and square.

12 thousand votes is a ton. But with 5 percent left, it could happen.

For a recount to matter, the margin is going to have to be in the low thousands at most.

But i couldn't be happier Bush's shit is in check

[FromWayDowntown]

As a complete aside that I doubt anyone else will care about, the Texas Court of Appeals for the Thirteenth District, which runs essentially from the Valley up to just south of Houston, is on the verge of having ts first elected Republican ever.

Coming down to the wire.

[Zunni]

Ken Mehlman makes me vomit. He has turned EVERY interview into a pimp stop for his loser candidate, Steele, in Md. Hey Ken, your candidate got a large crossover infusion of Dems in Prince George county and STILL couldn't win. Weak support from your "base", I guess.

[Zunni]

WEBB PULLS AHEAD WITH 99% REPORTING. CNN, just now.

[MannyIsGod]

!@$#@$#JL@$U#@$)U*#@*Ijhlidfjasfna

[PixelPusher]

!@$#@$#JL@$U#@$)U*#@*Ijhlidfjasfna
you can say that again...

[Zunni]

It's like a shade over 2500 votes. There are three areas left to count, Newport News, traditionally GOP, but a Navy area where Webb may stand him off, and two Demo areas.

[Das Texan]

WEBB PULLS AHEAD WITH 99% REPORTING. CNN, just now.


holy fuck.


the democrats are going to be one seat short though from what i'm seeing so far, unfortunately.


maybe there is another miracle to be had....

[timvp]

***ducks in***

I'm actually glad the Democrats got the house. In the last few years, Republicans have blurred the lines between church and state even moreso than they usually do and that is something so very Anti-American. I go to church and everything but it's weak to use the church vote the way the Republicans have gone to it recently.

They deserve to lose. And actually, the parties have gotten so close in ideology that it doesn't even really matter anymore. I used to not care about politics. Now it's 99.9% laughable to me.

***ducks out***

Where are you getting this information? I am watching live, and every source I have seen has Webb up by nearly 3,000.

[Marklar MM]

CNN has Webb ahead 1,143,100 to 1,140,900

[ChumpDumper]

Fox is giving it to Webb with 100% reporting.

i f**ckin hate Tennessee. I'm going to blow the place up.

Over 80% of the damned vote went towards a state constitutional ban on gay marriage.

How backwards are we?

It will be nice to see Bush's speech tommorow

[Nbadan]

So have they made it official yet?

i f**ckin hate Tennessee. I'm going to blow the place up.

LMAO at teh gays, the best way to get a Republican to the poll is a gay marriage ban bill

[MannyIsGod]

The difference in Virginia is...

CNN:
Prince William County:
Webb 42,038
Allen 39,700

The VA site:
Prince William County:
Webb: 5,670
Allen: 6,492

[MannyIsGod]

I'd be very careful with what you say dude. I would not be one to make those kind of threats over the internet lightly in any circumstance.

Move to a different state. You're not going to change a bunch of Hillbillys, so change locations.

[Zunni]

Fox thinks Talent is gonna lose in Missouri due to precincts being in KC and STL. Heavy democrat areas.
The Dem areas ALWAYS report late, because they have the shitty low tech voting methodolgies.

[T Park]

Tennesse is off the table. Corker wins.

Whew that one was close.

[ChumpDumper]

The Dem areas ALWAYS report late, because they have the shitty low tech voting methodolgies.They hang back and see how many dead people need to vote.

[T Park]

They vote by yelling yay or nay?

[Marklar MM]

They hang back and see how many dead people need to vote.

They wait to see how many dead people need to vote to counter-balance all the extra votes given to republicans. :) I am not political, so don't yell at me. That may be false. I read it on the internets.

[Zunni]

They vote by yelling yay or nay?
Think: punchcards, paper ballots

[T Park]

Think: punchcards, paper ballots

I was kidding.....

[MannyIsGod]

Allen is speaking right now

[MannyIsGod]

It is not a concession speak, he's saying its going to last long and blah blah blah

[T Park]

Counting going into tommarow?

This is 2000 all over again...

Supposedly the Allen Campaign says the Networks are wrong, and they are up by 5 THOUSAND votes!!?!?!?

[T Park]

a huge conservative area in Virgina supposedly the registar closed up and didn't finish counting the votes.

So that area is not done...


"Numbers have been transposed" according to the Allen campaign.

[Das Texan]

Counting going into tommarow?

This is 2000 all over again...

he is on drugs.

It really is 2000 all over again.

Corker is being declared the winner in TN.

[Ocotillo]

Matthews says 33,000 Fairfax county votes have not been counted. Bodes well for Webb.

[T Park]

I dunno Das, if its true about the conservative area not totally reporting in, makes you wonder.

[MannyIsGod]

Yeah, Fairfax went heavily to Webb.

[MannyIsGod]

And whty the fuck would they stop counting tonight with so little left to count? That is ridiculous!

[T Park]

Matthews says 33,000 Fairfax county votes have not been counted. Bodes well for Webb.

Yeah heard that too.

Sorry that I don't know the name of the said county that is not done yet

[T Park]

And whty the fuck would they stop counting tonight with so little left to count? That is ridiculous!

Had House on TIVO and was pissed they missed it?

[MannyIsGod]

If its Fairfax, I would be very worry if I were Allen. Thats Webb country.

Fairfax and Fairfax city are both less than 100% on CNN's site. They are both in Webb's favor.

[T Park]

Damn Crystal and his vagueness.

Wish he would've said the name of said county.....

[clambake]

Manny is not the jinx, he's the mojo.

[PixelPusher]

Manny is not the jinx, he's the mojo.
Manny's gonna need a 3 week supply of Red Bull to stay glued to this blog if a recount is initiated.

[T Park]

Supposedly Mckaskill has taken a 1 thousand vote lead in Missouri.

That will pretty much do it IMO.

Missouri is a pretty liberal state, and this won't be any different.

MO is a Red State if ever there were a Red State. See, you're dumb Tpark. You should just STFU.

And yeah, I do need Red Bulls for tonight.

A dead democrat Beat a repuBlican in that state.

Yeah VERRRRY Red.

See your not as smart as even you think.

So STFU.

[MannyIsGod]

You're*

I'm smart enough to know that.

[MannyIsGod]

Anyhow, MO is a very Republican state. The country is just pissed at that party of idiots to the point where that really doesn't matter worth a damn.

[MannyIsGod]

BTW, a California has a Republican governor, you think they're not blue???

Tpark, u r a smert pepole

Bitch, you're dumb. STFU.

[Das Texan]

McCaskill with a lead and especially a win in Missouri would be quite the coup for the Democrats.

Webb will go into the recount with a lead. How much depends on Fairfax.

[Zunni]

Well, it was Ashcroft, so dead beat dead looking. The voters probably couldn't tell the difference.

If you paid attention to his politics, hes damn near Democrat.

Tpark, you're a dumb shit. :)

[MannyIsGod]

I'm an adult I'm an adult woooooooooooooooohoooooo

[clambake]

We elect Arnold and surround him with dems.

Take advantage of his connections.

[MannyIsGod]

Webb says he won. Fuck yeah. Take that Allen.

[PixelPusher]

The best thing about Schwarzennager winning California is that he become the new "political model" for future Republicans. :lmao

The only thing that could have made this night better was Perry losing.


Everything else has been great.

Heard some analysts on the radio tonight calling him the new star of the Democratic Party.

He's a great candidate in a horrible place. Its going to be hard for a long time for a black candidate to win there.

[Das Texan]

He has been for a while now. Not sure what he will do next, but I just hope its something great. The Democratic party needs more great candidates and people like him.

I wonder how much the 'call me Harold' cost him....what a sad day in Tenn.

[Das Texan]

I'm sure it played a crucial role. But to his credit, he wont blame that for his loss. He will be back real soon.

[Nbadan]

No doubt. we have not seen the last of Harold Ford.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

A friend of mine's boyfriend is working on the campaign of Joe Heflin (D) for State Rep. District 85.

Apparently, it wasn't supposed to be close for Heflin, but he's up by about 3-400 votes with just under 90 percent reporting.

[MannyIsGod]

I wonder how much the 'call me Harold' cost him....what a sad day in Tenn.It was neck and neck untill that ad played. How much do you think it hurt? It pisses me off that such a bullshit underhanded tactic worked.

Just out of curiosity...what's wrong with that?

Arnie rules.

[whottt]

Allen lost? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo o

[whottt]

$@#$#@$ I am going to go burn a flag.

[MannyIsGod]

Well, lucky for you Democrats are in control of BOTH houses of congress now. Republicans might burn you instead.

How'd your fantasy team do?

[MannyIsGod]

Mine has 133 points so far this week. :-D

[PixelPusher]

Just out of curiosity...what's wrong with that?

Arnie rules.
Nothing. In fact I think it would be smart for Republicans to say "Message Recieved" the way Arnold did and move back to the center.

But that's a sacreligious to the hardcore righties that dominate the Party.

[T Park]

Why is it always the repugs have to move to the center, and not the lefties like Schumer and Pelosi?

[Marklar MM]

Shit. CNN runs all these good lookin broads, then throws on man lady.

[ChumpDumper]

Those Democrats would do well to move to the center as well. Their continued success depends on it. Whether they are smart enough to figure that out is very much in doubt.

[MannyIsGod]

They are still counting in VA and Webb's lead is growing.

J H Webb Jr Democratic 1,162,004 49.50%
G F Allen Republican 1,157,259 49.30%
G G Parker Independent Green 25,968 1.11%

You guys still don't get it do you?

Bush got reelected because he was the moderate candidate....

The Republicans are the moderate party...that's the problem.

As for Arnie...Arnie's not a true Republican as you define the word...he's just a guy that knows how badly Socialism sucks and loves America.

That's pretty much the people that put the Republicans in power.

The moderates...it's always they that decide the elections.

So if you find yourself out of power...it's probably because you are no longer the moderate party.

I couldn't agree more.

For once we are in 100% agreement.

I don't view oppositional congress and president as some extreme change...more like a return of the status quo...

The aberration was the entire country swining one direction...and again, it was not because everyone loved the Republicans...it was because they hated the Democrats.


We'll see who the Crats trot out there for the election that actually means something...

If it's not Wesley Clark...G'bye.

[whottt]

I couldn't agree more.

So then you see how stupid the Democrats have been for the past 6 years?

Again...I cannot stress strongly enough that this election essentially means shit. No one cares about the midterms...

[Nbadan]

LMAO...hey, just because the crats getting booted out on their asses caused you to lose it doesn't mean it will me.

#1. I am not locked into a party. I don't swear by one party or the other...and anyone that does is closeminded and foolish IMO.

#2. If you think the country has gone pinko and shares your extremist views you are wrong...it doesn't work like that.

[MannyIsGod]

Democrats have a chance to win the country over now. Lets see what they do with it.

[whottt]

Mine has 133 points so far this week. :-D


Geezus...mine has like 56 points. Not all my guys have played and my stars had a shitty first day but still.

Again we agree. I don't swear by any party either (actually I grew up Republican). I would simply add:

#3. If you think the country has gone extreme right and shares the views of Bush, Cheney, DeLay, etc. you are wrong...as tonight proved, it doesn't work like that.

[Marklar MM]

Webb up 12,000 votes.

[whottt]

#3. If you think the country has gone extreme right and shares the views of Bush, Cheney, DeLay, etc. you are wrong...as tonight proved, it doesn't work like that.


The country never did...those guys were just better than the ones the Democrats put out there.

Argue it if you like...but the majority ruled and that was the feeling of the moderates.

That's why the Republicans went from getting in via the electoral college sans the popular vote to winning a majority.

[Marklar MM]

Webb declares victory.

[MannyIsGod]

J H Webb Jr Democratic 1,167,053 49.56%

Well he formally declared the former declaration.

How big was the Fox ad in MO?

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Montana governor says that Tester-Burns could be called within the half-hour.

Tucker lost the bowtie about a year ago, IIRC.

I also enjoy Scarborough, but his Daily Show/Colber Report obsession is a little disturbing.

[MannyIsGod]

Arizona close to denying a gay marriage ban. They passed English as the official language. All of the other gay marriage bans are passing, and all of the medicinal or general marijuana use issues have failed.

[MannyIsGod]

Progress or anger? Perhaps a bit of both. Turnout will be up, but it still won't crack 40% which is kinda sad.

My predictions for the day: 230 House seats for the Democrats. In the Senate, I think it will be 51-49 for the Democrats. Tennessee goes to the Republicans, but they sweep Virginia, Montana, and Missouri while holding onto NJ and Maryland. I don't believe they will be in play in Arizona regardless of how much they want to dream.:D

Sure, it was a gameday prediction, but looks like a pretty good one so far eh? :)

[MannyIsGod]

I've never been so happy to have been wrong.

America has spoken!!!

[turambar85]

And you wan't to blow the place up because it didn't go your way. How backwards is that?

No, I am not mad that it didn't go my way, I am mad because a law was passed by people who don't know the law whatsoever. There is no legal, religious, or logical basis for the Amendment.

That is my problem with this issue. They are simply ignorant bigots.

[DarkReign]

Chris Matthews is awesome, as is Olberman. Best coverage by far.

Agreed.

[xrayzebra]

How backwards is: I am right and the majority is wrong kinda argument. Talk
about I love me who do you love.

[DarkReign]

How backwards is: I am right and the majority is wrong kinda argument. Talk

The majority voted for Gore in 04, he lost. Using your logic, Bush shouldnt even be President.

[turambar85]

How backwards is: I am right and the majority is wrong kinda argument. Talk
about I love me who do you love.

So, when slavery was supported by the majority it was something that was good and just, and showed just how competant the citizenry was? When women weren't allowed to vote, and the ignorant majority agreed, it was good, just and correct?

Come on X-ray. You know this is not true.

The majority is completely wrong, not because they have views contrary to mine, but because the dumbasses can't even begin to argue, in a logical manner, why gay marriage should be illegal. It is NOTHING but bigotry and hate, and has no place in our society.

For this one instance I will say, with no shame, that I am 100% right, and the clear majority of Tennessee is absolutely in the wrong. I have debated this issue now with 3 family members and 4 friends who all voted yes. I conviced two that they were wrong, the others just got mad and ran off. None of them had a single reasonable argument as to why it should be illegal.

Religious reasons given, even if we accept religious laws, are bogus and wrong.

Moral reasons given are impossibly wrong as well.

The sancitity of marriage is a bullshit argument and easily shot down.

There is nothing. They stand solely on foolish pride, ignorance, and a holier-than-thou religious outlook.

This is a fact.

[clambake]

I have a brother and his family in Nashville and they would agree with you. But Tennessee has along way to go.

[turambar85]

[clambake]

One at a time, friend.

[turambar85]

I would agree with you, but it is so disheartening to talk with so many people who have such....hatred in regards to their view on this subject. To prove to them the fallacy of their views, even in a non-aggressive way, only makes them scream and run off.

It will take a looooong, looong time before this country gets its head out of its ass.

[DarkReign]

The law will be repealed. Eventually.
