Osama Bin Laden was apparently right, the US doesn't have the balls to defeat Muslims.

We still do, but we may have to do it without help from our government.

"Actually, FNC addressed the immigration issue in their exit polling and said it didn't even show up as a concern."

Sure, but they're also not using the exit polling data, because it's unreliable. So we can't draw a conclusion about immigration from the exit polling either.

Guys, we need to look at this all from a historical perspective. This is actually not a bad result for a President starting his 6th year. If we keep the Senate, it's actually a historically pretty good result.

With voter fraud, the fallability of electronic voting machines, and illegal/legal immigration's effect on demographics, this was the last, best chance for Republicans to win elections. I am not even taking into account the utter incompetentce of the losers the Republican't party puts up for selection. We lose Weldon and Santorum because of the rest. It goes downhill from here. Prepare for the ensuing sh!tstorm.

Why would impeachment be political suicide? The war is completely unpopular, the government is HUGE, and Bush governs like a RINO. He seems incapable of defending his positions on anything. Who would come to his defense when it would be so easy to just leave him hanging out to dry? The media will kill him.

Bob Taft alone brought down Ohio. That does not even factor in the other problems in Ohio.

Taft and Nays. Both are pigs and the worst kind of Republicans...

You know secretly McCain is doing the happy dance about tonight. It helps his Presidential chances.

Helps Romney and Giuliani, too. Destroys Allen. Probably hurts Hillary a lot - because two years of Speaker Pelosi's sound bites are going to be hard to stand in solidarity with on the campaign trail.

I don't get emotional about politics any more, since it's just another carefully produced news pageant. America always rises above the folly of its elected represntatives.

And the saddest part of that is McCain is doing all this to blow off the Conservative base and still win the election in '08.

My estimation: Three counties will definitely go against Burns: Deer Lodge, Silver Bow and Missoula.
