Detroit is always the last to report in ...

They spend half the night trying to find someone who can count.

[Lovely-Day-For-A-Guinness]

62% reporting, still up by 7%

Hey Obongo, surf's up and that wave is about to come crashing down on that smug mug of yours!

“Blowhard O’Reilly finally over so now I can turn on Fox News.”

I know...when I see him light up hawking his “gear” it is even more nauseating.

Hyannis, the home of the Kennedy Compound is even going for Brown.

Kennedy must not be resting very peacefully tonight.

[Interesting Times]

They can steal it in Boston.

Don't think so. Brown's lead is rapidly moving beyond the range of possible fraud.

"Now Chrissy Matthews reporting in from the dyke bar, he appears to be ready to cry.

Good Lord, these sex pervert com symp sons of bitches need to be destroyed, they are like vampires."

Creepy :|...I don't know how you guys can stand it! I wouldn't be able to.

60% of the vote is in:

Brown - 53% (694,897)
Coakley - 46% (607,703)

As a humorous aside, 3rd party candidate Joseph Kennedy (I'm not making this up) has 1% of the vote (13,079). I can just picture all those little old ladies casting a vote for that "nice man" Joe Kennedy.

[MuttTheHoople]

WE’RE OUTSIDE THE MARGIN OF CHEATING!!! IF THE FLAGBURNING BEDWETTERS TRY ANYTHING NOW, THEY’LL GO FROM A 125 SEAT LOSS TO DANG NEAR ALL OF THEM....535 GOP- 0 DEMS!!

[joltman1974]

Boston 94/254 32,706

37% 509

[TonyInOhio]

Votes still to come in from Boston...please keep posting those numbers also!

dave Wasserman from Cook Political Report said the Boston numbers won't be enough for Coakley, and that Brown wins by 3 to 6 points.

Kennedyland is IN: Barnstable, MA (including Hyannis Port) gave Brown 61%, he needed 59% there

LOL!

[MaxMax]

I dare Mitt to take any kind of credit for this win like Steele tried to do.
I've heard nothing from Mitt in support for Brown.

Get lost Mitt, you fraud.

[La Enchiladita]

Ah, yes... what a “motley crew” can do!!

[RedMDer]

“THANK YOU JESUS....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!”

AMEN!

[Bush gal in LA]

I just went to get dinner and I just came back and saw that its 53 to 46! I think I might faint I am so HAPPY!!! Is it over? GO BROWN!!! WOO HOO!!!

[TomGuy]

Boston.com

63% of precincts.

Brown’s lead increases by 85,000.

[Deo volente]

They haven't (yet) taken away our power to vote, and tonight the people are speaking at the ballot box!

"We don't want any more of your socialist garbage! It stinks!"

This is also taking place, quite fittingly, on the eve of the first anniversary of Obama's inauguration.
