Webb Wins U.S. Senate Seat in Virginia, Allen Concedes Race

LEXANDRIA, Va. — Two days after American voters spoke, Virginia Republican Sen. George Allen made their decision final when he conceded his Senate battle to challenger Jim Webb, officially completing a Democratic sweep of Congress. Allen conceded the race at 3:15 p.m. ET during a press conference Thursday in Alexandria, Va. "Sometimes wins, political or otherwise, can blow the leaves off branches or even break limbs but a deep-rooted tree … will regrow in the next season," Allen said during his concession speech. The voters of Virginia have spoken, he said, "and I respect their decision."

One of my co-workers literally started dancing.

Pitifully foolish, uninformed people dance and give themselves away!

Lectured? Not!

We were the GOP Observers here in 2004 for a reason, BUT, If you think the national Election Fraud is in Ohio and Not centered inside the Beltway, you should extricate your head and smell the fresh air.

DeWine has been a Pathetic RINO just like Voinovich in Ohio. After suffering with Glenn and Metzenbaum for 20 years, the best we could get was a pair of RINO's. Now we get one of the most Liberal Senators in Sherrod Brown. Sigh.

You might want to take a peek at the Race for Congress Critter from Ohio's 15th District where Deborah Pryce (R) is currently leading Mary Jo Kilroy (D) by 7,000 votes on 15-NOV-2006. But it is not yet decided, even a week later!

Do you think that Mary Jo Kilroy has conceeded? Not a chance. She is demanding that the 10,000 provisional votes be checked and challenged so that she can still grab another seat for the Dems. She has even taken out campaign ads urging that the Democrat Provisional Voters contact the State Board of Elections to demand her vistory. The cute part is that the Count has been delayed from this coming Saturday till the following week due to the OHIO STATE - MICHIGAN Football Game!

Meanwhile, we watch as the Republicans concede with a 7,000 vote margin in a State wide race for Senate in Virginia and a 3,000 vote margin in Montana.

If the Republican Candidates are not willing to fight for uss, why should we be willing to spend our time and money tofight for them?
