Post results of the vote.

Telling isn't it, that CNN and MSNBC aren't analyzing the vote, discussing, dissecting, as you know they would do if they liked the results.

All I got was a totally blank screen. What a bunch of sissies.

Thanks for your patience.

I am not patient, KOS!!! I want to see you all cry!

"It's so damn funny that DU closes it's threads to lurkers when they are losing on an issue."

These people have been calling Senators at random for the last week. I don't know what they hoped to accomplish, besides getting the staffers PO'd.

Ode to the democrats....

...or Ginsberg is mistaken for a diseased elm tree and accidentally mulched.

Dude, that's freakin' funny.

Agreed. Had me guffawing (and that's not that easy to do)!

I don't think the voting is done yet.

That's next on the CD changer.

I'm going to be very interested in Ann's columns

Well, who isn't "interested" in Ann's columns?
Sorry about the small "columns".

Still the Kings of Comedy--despite all the competition from Capitol Hill!

Numbers update;

Exit polls show Kerry in the lead. We're doomed!

[Purrcival]

Yeah, I'm seeing that error message now, too. But I still hear the audio. No matter, they weren't showing a vote tally, anyway.

"Give Bush the chance to nominate just one more Justice and we would really see the DUer's implode."

Oh would that be funny to watch!

"Right now they are in the internet's version of a rubber room."


There will be more F's thrown around on DU and Kos than one would here in a Marine Corps NCO club on Friday night.

Final tally?

[Albion Wilde]

Poor DemonRat Senators; poor DU'ers. Here's something to help:

[Indy Pendance]

A vote to have a vote.

I am so ticked because C-SPAN will not show the vote count .. like they usually do.

I suppose they're trying to give the impression that the vote is not going for the repubs - when I believe they're not showing it because it favors the repubs ..??

Don't you be dissing C-SPAN. They're not quite as neutral as I'd like but they're about as nonpartisan as we can reasonably expect from a mainstream outlet.

C-SPAN usually does not show live results from a Senate roll call vote because unlike in the House voting is not done by electronic device.

"Kennedy has waddled off the floor of the senate"

It's Happy Hour. Poor Ted couldn't find his Anita Hill. So he used Kerry instead.
