Yeh, what happened to their fraud machine this year?

Sure it was there, but it wasn't enough to overcome steep 'Rat deficits in many of these congressional contests.

Unfortunately, this can ultimately work to the advantage of the 'Rats in the future, since the subject of cleaning up elections could be put on the back burner as too many winning Pubbies and conservatives become complacent about the vote fraud issue.

This is 53. It looks like 54 total.

If you’re a Democrat named Mark, you had a rough election.

Maryland just elected a Republican governor, and with it the state’s third consecutive black Lt. Gov., FWIW — two of them Republicans. Would Governor Hogan appoint someone like Steele? (I’d really like someone more conservative, but this is Maryland.)

That’s two straight years that the LINO Sarvis has tipped a race to the Dems. I hope they’re paying him well.

Do no underestimate the ignorance of the Louisiana voter. Edwin Edwards is in a run-off for Congress.

All the RAT-leaning polls giving them erroneous +5 kept the fraud revv-up to a minimum. If the polls had been accurate, they would have upped the fraud and won.

Remember, lie to the pollsters!

Could be I don’t know. I read 10 Democrat senate seats are up for re-election. Hopefully we can poach one or two.

GA has Johnny Isakson (RINO) up for re-election in 2016. We are going to try to primary him but the seat won’t go Democrat.

I don’t think Begich has conceded.

I think the species known as “blue dog Democrat” has become extinct, replaced by Democrats who sometimes pretend to be “moderate.”

Same with Michigan. The Republican candidate started off very strong. She would have been good, too. I can’t believe they let that one slip through their fingers.

The fraud machine was up and running but democrat criminal liars were a little afraid of being exposed. James O’Keefe and others are out there ready to expose them and hopefully - some day to jail them.

That wasn't the only monkey wrench thrown into the fraud machine...

Criminals aren't usually brave - same with lowlifes who do voter fraud... A little fear of exposure goes a long way.

And many of us refused to talk to pollsters this year... which messed up their impression of the electorate and messed up dem criminals ‘numbers’ making cheating harder.

Last but not least Democrats can only cheat on the close races... and lots of races weren't that close.

In two years we're going to find democrats who do voter fraud and shoot them in the head and leave their bodies in swamps...(Just kidding - we won't leave the bodies in the swamps)...OK, OK and we won't really shoot them ether...)

It looks like there is a special connection between the Fraud Machine and Barack Obama. I.e.: when he’s on the ballot, the real $ and the real pros are engaged, and all the stops are pulled out. The effort is monumental—and it pays off.

When Obama is not on the ballot the Fraud Machine makes a genuine effort, but it just doesn’t have the juice. The biggest $ and the vast army of professional cheaters isn’t out in force. The effort falls short.

That’s how it appears, anyway. Fwiw.
