LIVE THREAD: ELECTIONS 2006

[Dog]

Please Mods can we have one central Live thread ...its tough jumping from thread to thread to get results.

[AlGone2001]

"He led the entire nite, suddenly after 99.67% of the vote in Webb jumps ahead???"

That's because the democrats are famous for stalling and reporting their strongest districts until the end.

It happens every single election.

Then stop posting silly things honey chile.

National Revile's Rich Lowery now calling for Rumsfeld's resignation on FNC.

[KsSunflower]

Seems like the Dems will take the Senate. Missouri not looking good....Montana not great either. If Virginia holds for Webb...WE LOSE THE SENATE.

Ohio, I know you worked and prayed as hard as you could for the good and the true to win.

I was reading what you said about Ohio being deceived on just who is Sherrod Brown, otherwise they would not have voted him their Senator. Reminds me of the OT verse, Jehovah speaking, that "my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge". What a lame thing to do, to vote in Sherrod Brown due in large part to ignorance. But there you are.

I want to add that your Senate race is metaphor for enough House seats going Dem for Nancy and the radical left to take control of the House. Many people ignorantly vote for divided government, thinking it's time to put the other Party in power for whatever dissatisfaction they feel, but they don't bother to learn just who are those they are entrusting with this precious responsibility.

You probably won't read this 'til tomorrow. Just wanted to touch base and throw in m 2 cents.

[Faithfull]

Yes, W underestimated the intelligence of the sheeple. Most of the public just want to 'feel good' to say they are against war- but few understand the long term consequences of not fighting the terrorists. Pres. Bush never was good at communicating 'why' on basic terms that the sheeple will understand. There are only about 20% of us who are well informed- that's the real problem. It's no accident that the more informed one is, the more conservative one is.

[Arizona Carolyn]

What's the saying: You get the government you deserve.

[napscoordinator]

and not to forget those damned Diebold machines. I knew they were rigged by the RATs.



The dems said the same thing about us last election. Let's not lower ourselves to their level.

Drudge just changed it back..

[La Enchiladita]

Stop with the large, bold type. Just stop it.

[Jezebelle]

Talent's lead has shrunk to 3.7% - he had been up for a long time by 5-6%.

VA just report a couple more precincts. Allen still up about 2k.

[nopardons]

I agree, with a few quibbles.

The UNAPPEASABLES don't help us at all and neither did some of the crazy Congresscritters who turned on the president, in late days, help themselves, this nation, or us.

If we keep the Senate, it will be by an eyelash.

No, this is NOT a "bloodbath"; however, it IS hell for us and in the long-run, the nation.

[oust the louse]

"That means Dubya is certain to get impeached in 2007/early 2008."

HUH?....they are dumb but not that dumb.

[Tennessean4Bush]

holds the lead for Webb

You mean, holds the lead for Allen. Allen is ahead. The results you are reading have a typo.
