Everybody: PRAY that Tom Foley wins this thing! Life in Connecticut will be UNBEARABLE under that union thug gangster 'RAT Malloy.

I'm too tired from staying up late last night to do the same tonight... hope I awake to good news! :o)

Wonderful! Congratulations. Missouri also kicked tail. Of course we didn't get every seat in state runs but we made huge gains there too. Ike Skelton (in since 1956 and a Nancy Pelosi vote) is toast with our very own Sharron Angle type woman!

Many victories..to celebrate. It's a great start

Susan Bysiewicz is the CT Secretary of State.

She wanted to run for Attorney General, however the law in CT requires that each candidate for that office have experience as "an attorney of at least ten years' active practice at the bar of this state," which is a qualification that she did not hold. So she filed a lawsuit against the state, claiming either that her experience as Secretary of State should be accepted as qualifying her, or that the requirements of the law be declared unconstitutional. She lost that one, and became something of a joke for the effort.

Watched Fox Business Channel last night for returns and there was one race (may have been this one but I could be wrong), where they projected the winner with the R who was leading the race. Then they came back from commercial and said they made a mistake, they were actually projecting the winner to be the D who was trailing at the time by several thousand votes.

I was like "Dang, at least let the guy take the lead before you call the race for him."

I realize they are projecting on exit polls and a study of which precincts have yet to come in, but I wish they stop that. Hold off until enough actual votes have come in to make a rational call. Otherwise, you're bound to look like a fool some day and it looks like that's what happened here.

What next? This is the wackiest campaign season I can remember.

2000 was stranger. That's when we learned tv networks called races based on wishful thinking and how it might influence voters where the polls were still open. There were committee hearings in DC afterwards where they all vowed they would stop calling races until the polls closed but I noticed last night they were back to their old tricks.

Congradulations! I am so gratful to God for these gains but this nation better watch itself now....God shook us out of our stubor at 9/11 and we went right back to sleep....then Bo took office...the “people” had spoken and got just what they voted for...they believed a lie and that quite easily. So now we just better watch our steps as I see it.

BTW ...I listened to Bo’s speech. This idiot STILL doesn’t get it! Unbelievable! I don’t know what could happen for him to get it now...he’s got no chance with his mindset as it remains. Stunning the degree of his denial of what just happened. And his sidekick Harry reid is already bucking heads....evidences they aren’t going to co-operate with the peoples will by any means.

“MSM won’t call a race as won by a Republican until they’re absolutely sure the Democrat can’t cheat his (or her) way to victory.”

Soviet style elections are the preference of the propagandist press...

We might lose Buck, we lose Colorado also to Hickenpooper and we gain this and many, many Statehouses. Overall stellar news. Now if Rossi and Joe Miller bring home their races also! Dear Lord - we pray for this nation...

‘MSM won’t call a race as won by a Republican until they’re absolutely sure the Democrat can’t cheat his (or her) way to victory.’

I would think that NJ and CT would both benefit from NY’s demise...the bluest blue states are die hards, but die they will...the economic REALITY of the socialist RATS’ policies will set in...

When they wait to tabulate the major city votes until last, the only reason is that the pool of votes is large enough to offset whatever lead a Republican has. It may take them a while to “find” over 8000 votes in a city of 137,000 total. That may skew the dem % into the suspicious zone.

He’s a marxist and he does not intend to ‘get it’. His intention for this country is to bring her down. That is the goal; that is why we’ve been bombarded by different issues every week since the traitor took office. It is why we are in trillions in debt now ...it is designed to make us go down. Straight out of all the communist/marxist writings Cloward-Piven, Karl Marx, saul alinsky etc. “Overwhelm the system”.

It’s been proceeding nicely for him until....yesterday, but even with our gains, we are still in deep trouble with some very rough roads ahead. imo

You are right, for what ever reason God is allowing us another opportunity. Another proof positive that God does hear prayer.

It’s been a nightmare these past 2 years but it’s been a very revealing time. We have found out who the enemies ‘within’ are and some of them have an R by their name.

Oh yea! I see Rove is still knocking Connelly...though I have to say I wasn't all that excited about her. She had too much baggage from her past and I'm not refereing just to er witchy ordeal. She also seemed to come across to me as pretty immature. I wondered why PAlin supported her but the idea was to keep the Rinos out...so in that respect it was a good call for her to do that. But the woman herself was not impressive....reminded me of some of the others who tried to falsely run under the "tea Party". She might do well later on, but I really wasn't much impressed with her.

As for Obama...we know what he is...and his agenda no matter how he colors it otherwise...and he will keep trying to paint a picture which simply isn't there. I think to the black community has begun to wake up..what a great disappointment he has been for them...it was in their blinded eyes a Historical and wonderful event when he won. Too bad it wasn't someone like West....I like this guy so far...will look closer now that he's "IN".
