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.

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

Amen, bro.

There are a couple of dozen, unhappy, bitchers, that will never celebrate any victory, unless Atilla the Hun was beheading the demonRATs on the white hut lawn {OK, so that's not a bad idea}...but...

LOL....I only had half of my bottle of my fine wine, last night. To be continued, tonight! I know...I’m a lightweight. I still want to try your almond champagne, though.

Virginia will make TEN ... Seems unlikely being 12k down.

Can they give Fairfax County to Maryland?

Especially the trolls who ‘support’ Cruz but wanted to deny him the Senate. Hopefully their Steyer/Soros paychecks ended last night and we’ll be rid of them.

If you have any evidence of this please post it. It seems highly unlikely to me.

"God hasn’t done anything yet."

I would not presume to know what God has done.

we own the senate.

we CAN impeach Obama....we CAN have him arrested for treason, as well

God KNOWS what he's doing.

I heard that most of the outstanding votes are expected to be Sullivan anyway. It’s just the dems trying to pull their old tricks, but it won’t work in Alaska.

God gave us obama to wake us up

He will be removing him when he wants to,... and that may well be very soon.

‘God gave us obama to wake us up

Wouldn’t it be fascinating if God’s instrument to remove Obama wasn’t Republican but Dem? That’s seeming more like a real possibility today than it was two days ago.

Even without VA, a likely party switch by Joe Manchin and Angus King would make +11!

Now THAT would really chap O’bastard’s a$$!

The concern-trolls would slink off until 2016 then.

Not yet. Begich hasn’t conceded and may hold out for another week or so until 20,000 absentee votes are counted.

Begich would have to get 14,000 out of 20,000 votes to overtake an 8,000 vote Republican lead. That's 70% of the votes. Not likely. -Tom
