Dan Sullivan defeats Begich in Alaska Senate race
Washington Examiner ^ | November 5, 2014 | Rebecca Berg and Justin Green

Posted on 11/05/2014 8:52:19 AM PST by PJ-Comix

Republicans picked up another Senate seat Wednesday.

Dan Sullivan led Sen. Mark Begich, D-Alaska, by more than 8,000 votes with 100 percent reporting, according to Associated Press data.

The outcome obliterated any last hope among Democrats for a silver lining to Tuesday's Republican wave, and capped a banner Election Day for the GOP.

What's with Alaska even making it that close?

Is legalized pot taking its toll? Last I checked, the incumbent GOP governor (Sarah Palin's Lt. Gov.) was trailing as well. What's up with that?

With eight seats, Susan Collins is insignificant, here leftist liberal ways will not hinder the R’s, thank God.

You predicted that the GOP would fail to even win 4 seats. According to you the Dems had a permanent majority in this country. You were even one of those dipsh*ts that kept screeching that my beloved TX is purple because of ‘demographics’.

I tried to tell you....

And with this resounding defeat- I don’t think it would be that hard TO CONVINCE A FEW DEMS TO “CROSS THE AISLE”

How many of them are pleased by the results of CommieCare? 5 Dem Votes and we can repeal it. Who is up for re-election next time?

Odumbass is now going to implement the rest of it- when 80 million MORE people lose their health care it will not be good news for anyone in office.

make it our stated goal to get 5 Dems to cross over on this one issue

Establishment guys just want Republicans to win and stay there. They don’t mind conservatives in red states but it really bothers them when they see someone with no experience lose a critical purple state because of a political mistake.

I really wanted Ed Gillespi to pull it out. Looks like he won’t.

God hasn’t done anything yet.

I’ll bet the RANCH that the first thing they do is immigration reform. They’ll claim they were ‘forced into it’ by Obama and his exec order.

Of all the no-brainer stuff that the American people would hammer Obola for not signing immediately, they will send immigration reform first.

“We have to take care of the illegal, invading, job stealing, disease bringing, non-citizens that didn’t vote us into our new offices in droves.”

This above quote is available to all new Senators that again promise a wall, but only after conferring citizen status on 45 million Mexican invaders.

The doomers in here need to be called out. They seem to have no other purpose in life than to present a dark cloud. It serves no purpose other than to suck the life out of everyone.
