The polls close in ten minutes. Hopefully Georgia has held the line today. Poll traffic was reported as steady here Northeast Atlanta today...
Sad to say, but this is when the GOP is at their best - fighting from a minority position, i.e. the first two years of the Clinton presidency ...leading to a landslide GOP House/Senate victory in 1994.
The problem is they have not learned how to lead. Well, not since Ronald Reagan anyway.
APobama calls it
Chambliss wins Georgia Senate runoff over Martin

With Coleman it will be 42 R's.
That said, yes, on every issue it's hard not to imagine at least three RINO's crossing over to vote with the D's.
I agree, but I do not think for a moment it will happen. McCain won’t press for it, neither will the Bush Admin... I have come to the realization that we are definitely on our own out here : |
Thank you God, and Jim and John for FReeRepublic.
Relax. Martin could get all the remaining votes in Fulton and DeKalb and it still wouldn’t be enough.
ulk. Never a good sign. I just see acorn workers busily working in there workshop to produce new ballots, just in time to hand to the people to count and rejoice.
/end creepy and badly crafted Santa workshop tie in
AWESOME!

—Not if they are up for re-election in 2010 or 2012! They better vote as a block or they will be run off.
Chambliss (R) - 59% (1,026,032)
Martin (D) - 41% (714,310)
312,000 lead!
I sure hope so.
With Saxby the winner, I hope we can hold a filibuster on any firearm bans for at least the next two years. I’m sure the gun grabbers will pull a few RINOs, but at the same time I’m sure we could pull two or three dems, but would these dems filibuster to STOP such legislation?

Clearly, with good reason.... they are taking the best 2 falls, out of 3 ; }

For the people who cares. McDonald is leading Powell 57.5 to 42.5.
IMO, there were a lot of Republicans who voted for Obama or didn't vote at all to teach Bush a lesson. They were probably appalled at the Nov. 4 results and kicking themselves about what they did. Foolishly, they never thought it would make as much a difference as it did.
The people in GA had a chance to make it right and they did. I think Republicans in 2010 who made wrong choices this time will come out to make amends. At least, that's my hope.
Espically any from the south. I just wish I could say the same about abortion and FOCA. All those children....

Great letter I will be adding a 10th item to your list:
Do not allow any type of Card Check legislation to pass the Senate!
Did Hall County go out for coffee? they haven’t updated in over an hour.
Chambliss (R) - 58.5% (1,044,554)
Martin (D) - 41.5% (741,131)
303,000 lead!
