Interesting. That’s three republican wins since the general election.

I think Obama is going to implode. Him coming out with a huge spending plan at this time is not going to play well especially if the GOP doesn’t their job in opposing it loudly. One can not spend themselves out of debt.

Change we can believe in!
For GOP prospects, Yes we can!
that is good news. hope yet. funny if it was a republican win the press would be all over the fact that Americans like split govt.... not in this case. We need to remember this one and hold our ground the next time around. I’m b eing optomistic here.

356 is about the same as Coleman’s margin in MN, isn’t it. Wonder if Carmouche will telephone Franken for advice on a recount.
No automatic recount; Carmouche must request it. And he pays if he loses the recount.
