He may be the next Zell Miller. I did watch him during the minor rescue and I was shocked to find out he was a Rat.
I heard him referred to on Foxnews as a “DINO” (Democrat In Name Only) which is an interesting characterization for the sitting Governor of the State of Robert Byrd. We shall see if that description holds up or not by how often the Junior Senator from West Virginia chooses to caucus with the Republicans.
That will depend on how Conservative the Republicans choose to be. Now everyone should understand why 2012 Congressional elections will be just as important as these are, depending on who is left standing.
I hear some speculation on FoxNews about how this could have been 90 instead of just 60, had the tea Party been even more aggressive. I think that would have been over-reaching this year, but for 2012, all bets are now off.
Watch Pennsylvania too....that is shaping up to be one of the more fascinating political states tonight....
