During times like this, the DUmmies usually go into "Karmic Hug" mode. Remember this classic DU post?
"I really need a karmic hug":
Does anyone else?
Please tell me that no matter wha [sic]--we still love each other--the way the freepers [readers of the generally right-wing Free Republic Web site] never can/will. Oh please sweet Jesus please say we do. I am hurting so bad. I know I'll be better once I sober up but goddess, I really believed we'd do better than this.

Ugnmoose is delusional. But unlike most posters over at the DU, his English is a little more correct. Also, there's been no violation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Idiot.

5. and they just keep on punching. listen to ths guy DeMint He is kicking us when we are down. And, we just keep on taking it. I am now a green and will never support another Dems. They are incapable of supporting their base as there is no money in it. We lose to the bullies again and again and I am not a democrat anymore. They do not deserve me.
What We Are About To Do Here Is What The Good Lord Would Call A Cleansing of the Wicked. I Call It A Good Old Fashioned Texas Ass Kicking.

From Fox news:
Alito could be sworn in as early as noon Tuesday, in time for a formal introduction to the nation by President Bush during his State of the Union address Tuesday night.
Any reason why he couldn't just have him sworn in right before the speech and then take his seat with whichever Justices choose to attend?
Now that would really chap a few A$$s, wouldn't it. :)

In WA Rossi (R) won the Governor's office last year. Barely. The Dems managed to steal it back after the third recount and involvement of the court.
It's a blue state, largely because of Seatle. But a good candidate can pull off an upset here. Retain the upset after they toss in a few more fraudulent ballots? Harder to do. And, we have a mixture of Democrats here. Some are the extreme Gorbachav worshipers. Some are Scoop Jackson Dems. Some Liberal, but do not spend 24 hours on the sites of KOS or DU. These last two wouldn't support filibusters of a nominee like Alito. In an election year, under circumstances, it makes sense Cantwell wouldn't vote to maintain the filibuster. She'll feel free to vote against him though.

Hell yes
Let's get the gloating fired up...Where are the DU and KOS 'agony threads'?? lol
This win dwarfs W's 2000 and 2004 wins combined...the Left's last avenue around the will of America's conservative majority has been cut off for a generation...

I think Freepers are far more closer together than DUmmies will/can/should ever be.
