27. Uh...wake up, dude
The last race to be called. Virginia Senate. Incumbent George Allen, whose daddy was a Washington Redskins head coach (Redskins football is practically the second religion in Virginia), lost to Jim Webb, an ex-Republican who had said some shitty things in the past--wasn't exactly big on women in the military back in 1979--but admitted he had had a change of heart. Allen never really repudiated his racist past. I'd rather have a reformed sexist than a guy who isn't sorry he once had a Confederate flag and a noose hanging in his office.

One anti-Webb ad suggested that Webb was right for '06 -- 1806, and I thought, well, gee, then he's perfect for Virginia because most of the state seems to think that way with regard to wimmen, blacks, furriners, etc. I mean, in Alexandria, one road is named Jefferson Davis Highway. And that's NORTHERN Virginia.

32. I'm sorry - I'm Scottish and forgot that America has not discovered sarcasm yet
:) I think we were averaging about 10 PPS (posts per second) about Webb the last couple of nights.

I'm so on your team though.

As an outsider, I would like to congratulate DUers on your
triumph.  I hope the Democrats will show the Republicans how
to lead and unite.

25. We ran the table
Won everything there was to win. Hopefully our reps will clamp down on this criminal cabal. When they want something passed, just hold the vote in the middle of the night like the CONS did. No mercy.

30. Well in the semi-retarded words of Glen Beck
It's not so much that the Dem's won as much as the Republicans lost.


How sweet it is... :toast:
