LOL! I hear ya... I can't figure how that happened either. 😉

[fortheDeclaration]

Of course, they always manage to explain away their losses.

CNN has switched from euphoria over a presumed Danny O'Connor win to gloating that this is a "moral victory for Democrats" even though it has appeared that Balderson has won. "The intensity is clearly still on the Democrats' side!" They're discussing how Trump's support in suburban districts across the US has drastically fallen... and that bodes well for DemocRATs in the mid-terms.

There were only three scenarios, and thus, only three CNN responses.

Scenario One: O'Connor wins. CNN declares that this shows a Blue Wave in November.

Scenario Two: Close Balderson Win. CNN declares that this shows that Trump support has crashed, which means a Blue Wave in November.

Scenario Three: BLOWOUT Balderson Win. CNN declares that this shows that Russians hacked the election, which Mueller will stop, which means a Blue Wave in November.

Finally over.

MSNBC is still harping about provisional ballots.

[snarkytart]

Green party didn’t matter. R still would have won.

[Lazamataz]

Do it, again, Laz. Re-up for 2020.

It would be one heck of a lot more professional, I've learned so very much since then.

(Thanks Jane!!)

[papertyger]

Thank God for the weather report.

It gives CNN at least one thing it can get right.....

[snarkytart]

They do understand that this will be done all over again in November. hence the low R turn out.

[daler]

Now all they have to do is find a judge in Massachusetts or Hawaii to decide the Democrat actually won...

[nutmeg]

From what I just saw/heard on CNN: It’s definitely Scenario #2. They’re still predicting the Blue Wave...

[Lazamataz]

Was it you or another ‘Iron’-named freeper who provided all those wonderful photos of Freepers in action that I used? That was a very instrumental part of the video, and if it was you, I thank you to this day!

[nutmeg]

Yup, LOL!

[SaveFerris]

I guess they have all kinds of stuff on this page

Moral victories = LOSES!

After the Supreme Court put an end to the nonsense, Drudge came to Kansas City and we gathered in a local famous watering hole/restaurant. It was quite a night. We were relieved, we were jubilant, but more than anything, we believed that the country had been delivered from destruction. That’s why these elections are so important.

[Doctor Freeze]

Time for CNN to engage in a Karmic Hug with their liberal followers. Trump wins again.

[Impy]

That’s not a good thing, we want Bernie psychos to get nominated if they are in competitive seats.

And at one candidate she endorsed isn’t out yet, psycho Marxist Brent Wilder is leading in KS-3, his nomination would take the seat out of play for the democrats.
