That commercail was ridiculous. She also distanced herself from the Republican Party and the President (saying that the party did not like her for her stances) and bashed Wal-Mart as well.

And I had to waste my vote on this woman, because the alternative was worst. Shoot myself in the right foot or left?

At this point, all I can say is "good riddance."

Don't feel bad... we in Connecticut had to waste our votes on Joe Lieberman to spare the country from Red Ned Lamont. Believe me, that is one thing I am celebrating today... Ned Lamont came on like a ton of bricks, but - thank God - faded in a wimper.

The problem is that if typical NYS trends continue, Sue Kelly's seat has gone over to the dark side for the foreseeable future.

Downstate, first, we lost the seat in Lower Westchester to Nita Lowey - and she's been in office ever since. Then, we lost seats on Long Island - and we've never really come close to getting them back. We're down to 6 Republican House members out of 29 in New York - one from Long Island, one from Staten Island, and 4 Upstaters - and 3 of the 4 Upstaters barely squeaked out a victory.

The Republican Party in this state is in real trouble.
