I think the most FUn way to watch the Congressional Race in the 50th Congressional District in the San Diego area is via watching the DUmmies in Real Time watching the results come in. They must have had their hopes up especially after watching last night's CBS News report on this special election to fill Duke Cunningham's seat because CBS portrayed it as a choice between Saint Busby vs Bilbray the Anti-Christ. Of course, NO mention was made of the HUGE campaign gaff made by Busby who said that illegals could help get her elected. (If anyone can find the video link to that CBS Report, please forward it to me here and I will update this DUFU edition with it for ALL to see.) Therefore the DUmmies went into this special congressional election with high hopes only to be dashed on the Rocks of Reality later as you can see in this THREAD titled, "Busby >> Bilbray race." You can see the comments in DUmmie Real Time (EDT) as the tragic results come in. As usual, the DUmmie hopes soon to be crushed are in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, consoling the DUmmies with the fact that they won a meaningless "Moral Victory," is in the [brackets]:
Wed Jun-07-06 01:13 AM... Busby >> Bilbray race
Currently..
Bilbry -- 20,866 - 50.63%
Busby --- 17,693 - 42.94%
57 out of 500 precincts reporting so far.
Go Francine Go!
[Go Francine Go! CBS News has already declared you to be the Moral Victory winner!]
01:25 AM... 66 precincts now in... Bilbry still leads. 21,602 to 18,560
It's still early...
[It's never too early to win a moral victory.]
01:25 AM... 66 out of 100, 50.33 to 43.24 . . .Busby's on the move. . .
[Yeah, that .30% change shows momentum of MASSIVE proportions.]
01:28 AM... She did move more than him that last go around, didn't she?
[Keep hope ALIVE!]
01:32 AM... If the Independent & Libertarian weren't running.. we'd almost be tied.. C'mon Francine.. start moving some more!
[Actually Busby would be further behind but who am I to argue with DUmmie illogic?]
01:33 AM... Bilbray went down while Busby gained. . .
[Keep rubbing those DUmmie prayer beads!]
01:34 AM... 20% counted now, and percentages holding. . .
[What? No more massive .30% momentum shifts?]
01:37 AM... I know... that damn 3,000 vote difference won't budge.. C'mon numbers MOVE in Francine's direction!
[Sorry. Election results are NOT like Ouija boards. The results do NOT go in a certain direction because you want them to.]
01:35 AM... 100 out of 500 now in....
24,786 Bilbry
21,269 Busby
Sheesh..
[WOO! HOO! We're on our way to a MORAL VICTORY!!!]
01:45 AM... Bill Schneider's prediction that the Independent would hurt the Rethug..doesn't seem to be coming true yet.
[That was more Bill Schneider's HOPE in the form of a prediction.]
01:50 AM... 50 44 she's catching up..
[They just counted a bunch of the votes without papers that she requested.]
01:55 AM... Oh man.. I hope that trend continues! ..and she keeps eeking up until she bypasses him!
BRIAN BILBRAY - REP
26637
50.02%
FRANCINE BUSBY - DEM
23461
C'mon Francine!
[Why hold back? I say break out that Freudenschade victory champagne NOW!]
02:18 AM... . Damn!.. she just can't get past that 3k difference.. The difference was 2,973 votes.. now it's 3,300.
[So does that mean the .30% momentum surge for Busby has been overtaken by momentum for the Anti-Christ?]
02:38 AM... 3,278 difference.. Busby only gained 22 votes in last update.. Still.. moved in the right direction..
[A 22 vote gain? WOO! HOO! Time to uncork that victory champagne! Do it! DO IT NOW!!!]
02:52 AM... 46% of votes are now in and here is where we stand....
Precincts: 500
Counted: 232
Percentage: 46.4%
BRIAN BILBRAY - REP
35505
49.67%
FRANCINE BUSBY - DEM
31955
44.70%
Do we have any hope??
[Your chances are excellent for winning a Moral Victory.]
02:56 AM... Bilbray 49.67 -44.7. she's slowly catching up....almost half of the precincts are counted now though, so she'll need to catch up quite a bit soon for her to have a chance.
[BUSBY!!! SLOOOOOOOWLY SHE TURNED, STEP BY STEP...]
03:12 AM... The results remind me of the Jean Schmidt > Paul Hackett Race...
[Another Moral Victory for the Democrats.]
03:21 AM... I was thinking about that for the past hour. Almost posted it but didn't want to jinx a potential Busby comeback. Heavy red districts that we're trying to steal. In November the districts like this will not flip either. That +40 or anything close to that is preposterous. We need to reverse the low to mid GOP-leaning districts, and pick up the +15 seats.
[Heavy red districts that you're trying to steal? I give you credit for HONESTY.]
03:24 AM... Still 49.82% to 44.71% .... it WILL NOT BUDGE!
[NOT EVEN NUDGED!]
03:41 AM... Damn. Now Bilbray is up 4118 votes.
[That Moral Victory champagne is sure going to taste good!]
03:46 AM... It looks like the percentage is getting closer but Bilbray now leads by 4,321 votes which is 203 more than last time.
[You need to send out Karma waves to counteract this trend. Quick! Chant a mantra!]
03:54 AM... Seems to suspicipous that it bounces between 3 and 4k difference.. Regardless of how many votes come in.. Something strange seems to be going on.
[That PROVES it! ELECTION FRAUD!!! Call RFK, Jr. NOW!!!]
03:56 AM... Did that misstatement by Busby hurt her this bad? I thought she would squeak by, but this difference is larger than I would've ever thought. I can only think that the statement she made about illegals not needing papers has cost her the election.
[You wouldn't have known a thing about that "misstatement" if you had been watching the CBS News Ode to Francine last night that came in the laughable form of an "objective" campaign report.]
03:57 AM... Are they using diebold machines?? Sure seems suspicious like you say.
[Bev Harris is only $10 away from proving that Busby was the winner.]
03:58 AM... If this keeps up and he wins, I wonder how the media will spin this tomorrow?
["Democrats jubilant over moral victory in California."]
04:00 AM... I can tell you one thing. I'm sick and tired of "moral" victories. We need to win some of these kinds of seats if we are going to take over the House of Representatives
[And this DUmmie WINS a Moral Victory Kewpie Doll for having a brief moment of mental clarity!]
04:45 AM... It was the immigrant gaffe she made that killed her. Next time, make sure the people you're pandering to can vote.
[Or give the vote to the dead people.]
04:59 AM... Another update
U.S. REPRESENTATIVE 50TH DISTRICT - (RUN-OFF)
Counted: 451 of 500 precincts – 90.2 percent
BRIAN BILBRAY - REP 56016 49.49%
FRANCINE BUSBY - DEM 51202 45.24%
Again it looks like the percentage is tightening but Bilbrays lead is now 4,814. Damn, I think it's over
[It's over? Great! Now we can finally declare our Moral Victory!]
05:03 AM... AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH
I hate coming close!!!! Coming close isn't going to get us in control of Congress. We need to pick up these kind of seats if we're going to win in November. We can't let these opportunities slip by. There just aren't that many competitive seats.
[May I have a sip of your Moral Victory champagne?]
05:13 AM... Your right Larissa, we DO have to remember how RED it is, BUT she has another chance in November, remember this election was for the fill in and hopefully we will get the Indies and the Greens and others to vote in the November for her and Busby just has to keep attacking him while he is in office, PLUS in November more people will be out to vote. I think this looks aweful for the Republicans.
[Of course it looks awful for the Republicans. It's because you just won a MORAL VICTORY! WHEEEEEEEE!!! Break out the Bubbly!]
05:15 AM... Geeze if this looks awful for rethugs I'd hate to see what looks good! We have to start winning these seats!
[KILLJOY!]
05:57 AM.. AP has called the race for Bilbray -
[Now it's official---the Democrats have just won a Moral Victory.]
Let me know if you want on the DUmmie FUnnies PING List.

They already do that...if it become official some of the dead might vote republican.
Good grief! Isn't what she said a crime?
I would love to see what information they were handing out in both english and spanish that would 'tell you how to do this'.
It's great to hear that the DUmmies have won another Moral Victory. I'll take the REAL victories and let them have all the Moral ones. Congrats to Bilbray! KEEP THE HOUSE! KEEP THE SENATE! STOP IMPEACHMENT BEFORE IT STARTS! YES!
How many Business Hours in this news cycle?
Thanks.. I was hoping there'd be something over there about this...
Thanx. I just updated my DUFU Blog with that YouTube video of Busby. I am still waiting for a link to the video of last night's CBS News report about this congressional race. The bias of that report is BEYOND BELIEF. So if anybody can find it, please post here. Thanx in advance.
I'm only $10 away from sending Diebold a "thanks again" check!
Freudenschade, Baby!!!
03:57 AM... Are they using diebold machines?? Sure seems suspicious like you say.
Damn! They're on to us!
