Sen. Patty Murray has won a fourth term, riding a wave of strong Democratic support in King County to defeat Republican challenger Dino Rossi.

Why is it that close contests seem always to be won by the Democrats?

It seems like the voters in the inner cities have a vested interest in the Democratic ticket to ensure their bennies. Is this not a conflict of interest? ... a legal conflict of interest, I might add.

Brickhead Boxer (yes, Senator, you earned that moniker) needs competition for being the dumbest person in the Senate, after all.....

The liberals show up in droves to vote along with the conservatives against initiative 1098 which would have established a state income tax - (65% voted NO) - yet these same liberals vote for a supporter of 1098.

we didn’t get the Senate this time around (the odds were against us anyway), but... something to keep in mind, with the significant number of GOP victories in statehouses (up to 29, at last count), the possibility exists that nature itself may intervene during the next few years, changing the makeup of the Senate. Five democrat Senators in currently, or newly minted, red states are at age 70 or higher.

Here are the top five:

Frank Lautenberg, NJ — 86
Carl Levin, MI — 76
Herb Kohl, WI — 75
Tom Harkin, IA — 70
Harry Reid, NV — 70

Not that I directly wish death to any of them, I do think at least one or two will pass from the scene during the next few years, resulting in at least a temporary placement of a GOPer in his place.

They are projecting. They should actually try counting the votes. With mail-in ballots in Washington, it usually takes a while to get them all together, even the ones that seem to come out of somebody’s closet at the most opportune time to be included. Rossi shouldn’t concede until the votes have been counted and certified.
