Most of the elections we've lost were held by the GOP anyway.

So, as of now, nothing will really get worse. Let's not hit the bottle yet.

1. Too late... we got Rubio and so far, Rick Scott is ahead
Hit the bottle the minute they called it for Rubio. Hoping that Alex Sink can pull it out.

2. That's what I said. In Maryland for example
with 0% reporting for the senate they called the race for Mikulski..which if you were from or had ever lived in MD like I did you would know she is going to win. But how can they call it for her yet. EXIT polls. Which did not work during the 2004 election. Kerry, according to the exit polls beat the sh*t out of Bush in OHIO but somehow Bush ended up winning. So tell me how they can say exit polls are correct.

3. I hurt for Grayson
But the reason he won was because of the prior GOP involved in corruption/sex scandal. My district (Grayson) is predomimantly GOP.

Still hurts tho.

5. Grayson was the best thing to happen to Florida in a long time.
Now, with such strident right wing leaders there is no end to the damage they will do to Florida. There was also something on the ballot about balancing the federal budget. That was also passed in Florida with over 70% of the vote. Exactly where do those voters think the "balance" will come from? The first thing Rubio said was how he cannot wait to balance the budget. I am going to go out on a limb here and predict his plan includes cutting social services, education, and if at all possible, Social Security. You would thing a state like Florida would have people who liked getting a Social Security check.
