There are still a couple of undecided races out there.

Reichert’s not my favorite, but his opponent was a ghastly anti-war leftist.

In California’s 4th, Republican Tom McClintock is now up 970 votes.

Actually my mistake that didn't take into account another 122 from El Dorado County today. McClintock is up 1092.

Is Rep. Dave Reichert a conservative?

Sweeeeet...DailyKos’s PAC raised hundreds of thousands for Darcy Burner. They are weeping over there over this loss.

Not quite. He’s what one would call a semi-RINO. Probably the best we can do in a district that voted for Obama by more than the national average.

It will come down to Nevada County. Hope someone is minding the store over there.

He’s about as conservative as you can be up here in the little Soviet Union.

“In addition, the Democrats appear certain to hold the seat in Louisiana’s overwhelmingly Democratic 2nd District, where Democratic Rep. William J. Jefferson , though under indictment on federal bribery charges, was renominated and is heavily favored in his Dec. 6 general election.”

My question is a simple one. Where is Pelosi saying that Mr. Jefferson will not be seated? Where is the democrats calling for him to resign? Guess what’s good for the goose isn’t necessarily good for the gander huh?

If Jefferson actually gets convicted, either he’ll be expelled, or Republicans will have a great talking point.

I couldn’t stand snobby witch Darcy. She’s a Kos nut. I bet she’ll run again in the next election too.

He is indeed a RINO but in WA, that’s all you’re going to get.

It was nice to see Gilchrist go BUT I’d expected that we would have held this seat.

No but his district is suburban Seattle, so be grateful.

Impressive hold, I thought he toast in that seat. He and Mark Kirk surprised me.

He sabotaged the Republicans chances. Obama lost that district, it is GOP. Should be an easy gain in 2010.
