It looks like the DINOS are having a bad night tonight!

[county worker]

Lincoln will not get above 50%

[Mister Ed]

1. Just logged on . Looks to me like Corporatist Incumbents of both parties are faring badly. n/t

[pnwmom]

5. Which "non corporatist" incumbents are faring well? n/t

[Mister Ed]

9. How about just "Corporatists are faring badly"?

I like that.

[pnwmom]

11. But that only makes sense if they're not faring as well as "non corporatists."

And you can't give any examples of non corporatist incumbents who are doing better than other incumbents.

2. Very very hot race between her and Halter!

That will teach her not to be a DINO!

Go, Halter, Go!!!!!!

[malaise]

3. A run off awaits

She can lose then.

7. +1000 nt

6. There's an increasing polarization of the country

and tonight's vote results seem to confirm that the trend is still continuing.

[rocktivity]

8. That was obvious almost from the get-go

10. Nah nah nah nah hey hey hey goodbye! DINO"s and DLC'ers!

[HillGal]

12. Not in Murtha's district, the guy elected is pro guns and life, is against health care

and for off shore oil drilling.

[joeybee12]

17. So was Murtha...n/t

[Catherina]

13. Here's to many many more bad nights

:toast:

[kctim]

14. Really?

So Halter and Morrison are 'progressives' who are to the left of Lincoln?
So in the run off, the 13% of progressives who voted for Morrison are going to vote for Halter?
One less 'Blue-Dog DINO' and one more progressive to help pass progressive ideas?

[Sebastian Doyle]

16. "So in the run off, the 13% of progressives who voted for Morrison are going to vote for Halter?"

Probably. They voted against Blanche WalMart already. Obviously they wanted someone else in office. They had two other choices. Now they only have one other choice. Logically, Halter is going to pick up those votes. There may be some rare exceptions, if there's someone who hates both Lincoln AND Halter, but if that's the case they'll probably stay home and ignore the runoff altogether.

[Individualist]

15. A message was sent yesterday.

Hopefully this will continue and the damn DLC will be history.
