There's still been no concession speech.

Glad that Corker could win. Unfortunately, with we seem to lose MT, MO, and VA, we don't hold the majority anymore...

No - he isn't. But seeing as Democrats tend to huddle in large cities, their votes come together in large blocks late in the night. Such is the case with St. Louis County.

It's going to be a close one.

Montana looks lost.

So the white liberals have voted against two black senate candidates this election, Ford and Steele. So much for their racial tolerance At least black dems are allowed to vote for senators- they just can't be one.

Fox News says that St. Louis and Kansas City, two big Democratic strongholds, have not reported. Once they report, Talent's lead disappears.

So what? Concessions don't affect the final vote count. They're a polite formality, not a legally binding action.

People said the votes that are not counted yet are from Dims stronghold. And analysis by NRO shows he underperformed in Reps areas.

I see in the thread below that Michael Steele is not conceeding which is good.

Now pray for Steele to pull it out

There's still a significant number of precincts not reported in Republican leaning areas as well, including the west part of St. Louis county (if I'm reading the numbers right). There's probably about an equal number of precincts out there for Republicans and Democrats, but with the city going so heavily Democrat it's going to a nailbiter. I don't have a gut feeling on this anymore.

Talent won't lose to this dingbat. I have more faith in Mo than in the losers in Pennsylvania that relected Murtha and tossed Santorum. Pathetic. It might as well be Vermont.
