(The New York Times called him Obama's "annoyer in chief.") With more power, he will be even more of an irritant. And even with the polls still open in California, he's laying down the gauntlet. "Tonight was a referendum on the Obama agenda and the American people rejected it," Issa said in a statement.

With final official results not in yet, all I can say is “WASS”. With that fruit cake Brown and ‘call me senator’ Boxer are going to win. Being a Californian, not a native, with the idiots in this state voting the whack job liberals in, I'm seriously contemplating moving the hell out. Meg and Carly were the best candidates since Reagan.
I've also heard that Boxer is going reduce the amount of irrigation for the Central Valley as a punishment for the people in the valley voting for Carly.
God help us all here in the state of fruits and nuts.

I agree. I’m not in Issa’s district, but I certainly support him.
