Figured I'd start this with people posting their thoughts as they wanted.

Turned on MSNBC just a moment ago just out of morbid curiosity. Got to see Tingle Boy try and prod a dem senator to talk about how much better a night they will have because they got to run against "wackos" (his word).

Then Maddcow chimed in to, with a straight face, to say that spending under Obama overall was less than Bush.

And Olbyloon looks like he's about to cry.

I'm guessing Mach, like two years ago, is tossing back the Jack Daniels. Just not with the same happiness as last time.

Jumped back on MSNBC. They were talking about what would be addressed out of the gate if Republicans take control. Maddcow actually tried to argue that abortion would be top on the list.

O'Donnel said that he thinks that the leadership will want to address the fiscal stuff, but the Tea Party candidates won't let them.

This guys are so fugging disconnected from reality.

They're addressing their fan base. Telling them what they want to hear. Start telling them the truth and who knows, they'll be watching Fox before the year is out.

Winner winner, chicken dinner.

You guys wanna merge this thread into my uber balance/incumbent thread?

We need a special category for scumbags like Crist and Murkowski.

Damn! MSNBC is hilarious. I may end up watching.

MSNBC may be playing for the base out West. The polls have a few hours until they close, and if the Libs give up because of the news from the East, Boxer and Murray WILL lose.

Merged ... got running totals at the top updating now.

According to Drudge exit polls have Boxer winning out in CA. That pisses me off. I was really hoping CA would come to it's senses.

That state really is just filled with morons for the most part. They've essentially had constant dem rule and dem polices since Reagan left office, it's run them into the ground in every imaginable way, yet they keep sending them back.

Rubio trouncing Crist right now.

How about Grayson. He's a loser.

I should have posted this in this thread.

Quote:Guys, you need to watch how Prop 23 turns out in California. That prop would suspend a 3000 page cap and trade bill for this state. If Prop 23 loses then we have cap and trade in California and it just might carry over to the rest of the nation at some point in time

.

Portman wins big in Ohio.

West Virginia polls closed. This one is the one to watch.
