Schmidt Wins 08/02 11:05 PM

The local affiliate Fox 19 has just called the race for Jean Schmidt over Paul Hackett 52 to 48 percent.

Many thanks to all The Buzz readers who helped keep all of us on breaking news side of this.

And thanks to everyone who kept reading late tonight as well.

The Channel 9 affiliate has called the race as well.

Yeah, those are the ones, dead voters.

So with heavy spending by Democrats to get their guy in (over a million dollar campaign), the best they can do is a five point spread.

Gosh, I was going to be worried about 2006 for a minute there, but now I think I can take a deep breath before working on get out the vote efforts.

DUmmies tend to stick with crystal meth

I Heard so much of this place (DU), I finally went there to take a look.... WHAOOOOOO... THIS IS AN **ANGRY** BUNCH [Smile]. I actually think they take a loss twice as hard as we do here... (probably, because we have won our good share lately).

QUESTION? I suppose, it is illegal just to COPY & PASTE some of their stuff the write about and put it here?... I AM SURE IT IS. But what about a link of the blog?????? There is this guy who has a blog... and he explains the pain and frustration he feels. Everything that we dislike, he likes (MSM, NYT, CNN, NPR.... ). This guy is actually funny... but there is no question he is a "fanatic" (just as we are on our side). I just wish you guys could read this.... Oh it's so funny!

I have the LINK, but I wonder if it legal to do it????

As an agnostic and former Catholic, I've been dying to ask this of someone--what IS a Christian apologist?

I suppose I could look it up and not divert the thread, but I promise it will be just for one post, and I thank you in advance so as not to have to even post THAT. ;)

[Leofl]

Now can we get a bounty on their hides and start hunting liberals for real?

[freedrudge]

I cant believed it the Democrats are acting like they won, on all the liberal bloging sites they are so happy that Hackett lost with "only" 4%

[pepperhead]

No more than sKerry spending a whole 4 months in Nam and putting himself in for medals, ROTFL.

Maybe if he fragged himself like Kerry and Cleland he would have won his spot in congress.;)

[InvisibleChurch]

Nevertheless, a Marine is still a Marine.

but does a marine curse the president even if he is not in the service?

[neodad]

Democrats had viewed the race as a bellwether for 2006, saying even a strong showing by Hackett in such a heavily GOP district would be a good sign for them in the midterm elections.

By my count, Dim vetrans are 0-3 in elections (Kerry, Cleland, and now this guy). Maybe they'll get the message someday? Nah

what IS a Christian apologist?

Essentially someone who defends the Christian faith through skillful and well-reasoned argument.

others have.....

Mod?

[Mister_Diddy_Wa_Diddy]

An apologist is "one who answers", root is greek, "apologia".

[okie01]

Marines curse...

[MinuteGal]

Well, ding my bellwether! A great victory for our side because the Dems were betting a lot of marbles on this little race.

Rush will be as ecstatic tomorrow as I am tonight.

Anyone got a pic of Hackett? I want to see if he's as ugly as he is mean.

It's legal, but linking to DU or their blogs is frowned upon here, and for good reason. It's mainly just filth.

[pepperhead]

They have copied and pasted stuff from here before.

" In other words, a little-known Republican defeated a well-funded Democrat who ran as a Republican."

Game, set, match.

[Calpernia]

Congrats Ohio!

[ElPatriota]

Well, I guess you are right. I was very excited to actually hear the most inner feelings of someone on the 'other side.' This guy is actually a 'writer,' of sorts (Not professionally, I believe) and so he writes well enough to express with a lot intensity the pain the Republicans have caused him so far, and terrible *&^%$ long the next 3+ years will be!! [Funny). He of course was besides himself from tonight's loss in Ohio.

I do recommend it.... it was just funny. [smile]

Thanks for answering my question. it's true what the say... 'Wining is better than losing! - even as poor of a winning, as this one was. Good night!
