"The loss of Allen & Santorum is one helluva tragedy."
I so agree - I'm just sick about both of them losing. Something that might be a somewhat bright spot in this heartbreak is that from what I've read about Webb, he does have some conservative leanings and is pro-military AND he's a bit of a maverick and can fly off easily - -Dingy Harry may have a difficult time keeping him under his thumb.
Senator-Elect Webb's Surprises for the Moonbat Base
He started off by mentioning that "tomorrow is an extremely important day for America," and the crowd went wild, thinking he was talking about taking power. But of course, he launched into his praise of the Marine Corps, and the crowd cheered a little less loudly. Then he thanked all the brave veterans and brave men still fighting, and the crowd cheered a little less loudly again.
Then he mentioned that he received a call from Sen. Allen, and the crowd went nuts again. Then he mentioned how pleasant and dignified Allen was, and the crowd grew quiet. Then he said he was having lunch next week with Allen -- and the crowd was dead silent. Finally he told the audience that they should all thank Sen./Gov. Allen for his many years of dedicated service to the people of Virginia -- and you could almost hear the people gathered looking at each other asking, "What the $#@! did we just do?"
It was priceless. (Worth Reading in full.)
