LIVE THREAD: ELECTIONS 2006

[Dog]

Please Mods can we have one central Live thread ...its tough jumping from thread to thread to get results.

Clinton and HillaryCare gave us the first Republican house in 40 years. Clinton was also a gift. Even with a slightly Democrat House, we are still much stronger than in 1992 when Clinton entered office.

You're going to have heck of a wake up call

If you think the Dems won't take full advantage .. then you are a fool

[rintense]

Haven't seen those reports yet. But Terri Land and Mike Cox are re-elected. :)

We have a lot of people in the Republican Party who have done the work FOR the DNC; some of them right here on this site.

PLenty here...if it's not the border it's the patriot act...or spending.

They bash away not realizing that some RINOS and Dems prevented real change...and yet, so many wonderful progressive projects got done: The Suprene Court, tax cuts, the WOT, etc.

Steele closing gap 50-48 (cardin leading) with 28% report.



This race was called along time ago. I think we need to concentrate on Virginia, Montana, and Missouri

Today's results don't help Giuliani at all. In fact, today is devastating to any chances he had in a 2008 presidential election.

Most of the Republicans who have lost today are the "moderate" types that Giuliani's supporters claim are vital for the party's success.

Can't wait to see Hillie's numbers. See if she collected fewer votes this time around than she did in '00...

[Hawk1976]

Anyone notice CNN calling Maryland for Cardin? From their results so far I don't see it.

[finnman69]

oh come on, a total blood bath would be if we lost 8-10 Senate seats and 40+ house seats. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

[Petronski]

Idiot.

"Santorum wouldn't be my first choice either, but I would be happy to see him as our next President."

Vastly preferable to a Rudy or McCain.

"Ohio and Missouri passed the Minimum Wage law? Good god."

They way the returns are going, looks like Arizona's gonna get one, too.

Damn invading Californians....

[Chicos_Bail_Bonds]

To his benefit Shays moderated somewhat in the last six months, I saw him this summer on LKLive saying he couldn't be a real conservative in his district and then later saw an interview that said he went home after that interview and got a tongue lashing from his constituents.

"It is the moderates who are responsible for tonight's loss."

No, it is the loss of support by Independents, who are not Republicans, who are responsible for tonight's loss.

Which is to say that it is those who are responsible for the loss of the Independents who are responsible for tonight's loss.

Hi La Dita :-)

..dismal so far, depressing.

[bootless]

I remember Nancy from my CT radio reporting days in the 70s. Too bad ...

But so glad that Lieberman (I) kicked Lament's leftist BEE-hind.

[jbwbubba]

I can't get Jim on TKS and any obi wan scoopage or Hugh Hewitt on my old lap top, any new updates in last 45 minutes. Heard Hugh said he thought republicans keep house by 3, don't know why

[romanesq]

Barone did NOT say Webb will eventually win VA.
Are you on drugs?

[FreeAtlanta]

We need some of our votes (and ability to educate our coworkers and friends) to move into the Dem strong holds (I refuse to call them blue and us Red. To me Red is commie, and that is the Democratic party.)

[onyx]

I have no idea what you're talking about.
