yay finally
Mary Landrieu’s defeat will make 54 Republicans in the Senate. Please correct me if I am wrong
Barbara Mikulski (MD, age 78) kicks off that will be Repubs up by 11.
Had the GOP spent some money in Virginia Gillespie would be preparing to enter the Senate in January.
The Demoncrat vote fraud machine is awful this year. Lots of it depends on fraud in inner city black precincts and blacks slacked of on voting this year. They turned out in historic numbers for Obama. So did the young skulls full of mush with misplaced idealism. Hopefully Hussein was as good as it gets for the idiots turning out to vote
The Dems are lost without Hussein at the top of the ticket. He gets their dumbest lo-information voters turning out
Did Begich concede?
If that happens I hope the new Republican governor isn't as stupid as Christie was in NJ
Mikulski will be replaced by another Dem.
Yeh, what happened to their fraud machine this year? Did the Republican wave overwhelm them? Did they not store up enough ballots? Was Al Franken not involved? Were there not enough poll workers in the Chicago cemetaries? Were their ballot stuffers on strike? puzzling....
you are NOT wrong. Landrieu’s pending loss will make 54.
Gotta love this Faux news report - written by AP - where they end up making it sound like Sullivan’s win will be a bad thing for the Republicans.
I disagree. This is all the fault of Sarvis. He KNOWINGLY took money from Democratic supporters, knowing this would throw the election for the Democrat. It does not matter if he got the 10 percent he needed or not, he wouldn’t even say who he would caucus with.
He is a slimy rat who was doing the bidding of his masters. What a craven dog.
Ask Virginia voters about the election fraud. Dozens of machines voting for the Democrat in calibration errors, but not one Republican vote.
Or if a bunch of people hadn’t decided to toss their vote away going for the unelectable Libertarian...
Republican Larry Hogan is now the Governor Elect after defeating Lt. Governor Anthony Brown on November 4, 2014 (from Wikipedia).
Now if Republicans can pick up Mary’s seat Louisiana and get some blue dog democrats to join them they might have a super majority to over ride any presidental veto, God ? please let it be so.
9 seats is a good start. I think 10 Dems are up for re-election in 2016.
Maybe that's for the best.
If we take the Whitehouse and hold what we got, we can fix a lot of judicial problems here pretty soon too.
