If a Democrat wins with 43% of the vote is a "huge victory" and a "clear mandate"
If a Republican wins with 55% of the vote its "A closely divided electorate, clearly not a mandate"
Either way, this is much, much closer than most experts thought it would be.
Obamacare is a millstone for Dems in 2014, believe that!
Less than a point in it. Cooch needs to demand a recount if he loses. I smell dem voter fraud!
No...the TEA PARTY should take heart!!!
FLUCK the “GOP”.
(not a mis—spell).
Nor the boxes-in-the-car-trunk votes. :)
Hail Mary pass on 4th down with 20 sec. left on the clock
These are the people who vote how they are told (unionists, blacks, govt employees, etc) and those who vote out of fear (single women, students, queers, etc). Together they are a formidable coalition.
If you like your health care you can keep it RIP Obama
didn't CNN report that Ken was preparing his concession as soon as the polls were closed?
Yeah, if you lived here you would have thought this was going to be a blow-out give the lack of TV ads for CUCC ..

Fairfax numbers finally started moving again. Just more than half in. Cooch still in lead overall.
Okay. Thanks
My latest calcs: I have Cuch up by 8830 but McAwful will take the lead by 9K when Fairfax is finished and has the other cities as backup. It was a exciting for a while but don’t expect it to improve, unfortunately.
ALong with the “CINOS”..like my aunt..
I wish we had a “like” button! That is SO true!
What about absentee ballots?
They will find some way to blame the GOP for Obamacare. It will work for the party of free stuff.
Fairfax County will kill us tonight.
I’ll repeat: senate RATS are crapping their pants already tonight.
oh...oops...I didn’t get the joke....I’m not familiar with the VA political structure.
