Sestak Wins!

[FrenchieCat]

[onehandle]

1. Not yet. Just hearsay. nt

[FrenchieCat]

2. soon!

[jenmito]

3. The WH is OK with this, thinking Sestak will be harder to beat in the GE than Specter. n/t

[FrenchieCat]

4. WH knows to have Specter vote since he switch till next January is worth it.....

and so do I.

[jenmito]

6. That's right...

I think they played it smartly. Now they can look like they tried, but can now openly support Sestak.

[DCBob]

9. Actually, the WH is probably breathing a sigh of relief..

They know Sestak has a better chance to win in Nov.

[flyarm]

14. Oh please they knew what the inside numbers were..and they distanced themselves

after trying to shove that bastard down our throats with their paid bots!

This should be a very loud message to the DLC'ers..shove it ..we the people are not taking their shit any longer!

[FrenchieCat]

20. I you don't get that we've had Specter's vote in the Senate

till next January,
than you don't understand politics,
and the art of the possible.

[flyarm]

21. It's like a vote from the devil..the devil who covered up the murder of a democratic president.

One who I loved and take that dlc shit and shove it!

My soul is not for sale..nor are my democratic principles and values!

Seems some people around here will sell their soul for shit on a shingle!

How did his vote work for health care ..oh yeah we got fucked!

How is that immunity for the telecoms spying on Americans working for you?? it sucks for me!!

How are those renditions working out for your values? for me..i despise it..not what my family fought for for this country!

How is that Afghan war working for you???????

And Gitmo closed yet????????? Oh i know some masterful chess game ...

How is the millions of miles of drilling on our coast lines looking to you right about now?? To me..since the Gulf is my backyard..I have seen many dead birds on my beach and had my eyes and throat burning with god knows what fucking shit! With the possibility of my beach being destroyed for the rst of my lifetime!

Specters vote??...

You must love evil!

and the most evil of Republicans..cause that fucker is an evil republican..I don't give a rats ass what letter he hangs on that back of his name..for greeds sake and for the sake of hanging onto power he does not deserve nor has earned!

He is an employee of we the people ..and we the people just told that bastard ..he is fired!

That bastard was up to his eyeballs in MKULTRA..and every damn evil thing he could be!

And let this be a message to the DLC'ers..we the people ..their bosses..have had it!

[FrenchieCat]

25. LOL!

[DCBob]

27. you dont understand politics.

the WH & Dem establishment made a deal with Specter when he switched.

[Peacetrain]

5. Good!

[handmade34]

7. good...

:applause:

[jenmito]

8. Now on MSNBC they're saying Obama should get some blame for Specter's loss...

and saying voters were telling Obama not to tell them who to vote for. So, the media managed to both blame Obama for not doing ENOUGH to "give" Specter the win, while saying voters rejected Obama telling them to vote for Specter. :eyes:

[Diamonique]

11. The talking heads on MSNBC weren't blaming Obama..

.. they were stating that some of the Dem pols in Phil are blaming Obama.

I'm all for slamming the media, but let's slam them when they really say something wrong, not when they're just reporting what someone else said.

[jenmito]

22. I heard them say the voters didn't listen to the Dem. pol. machine in PA and not even

the president. :shrug:

[jenmito]

23. And Andrea Mitchell just said she thinks Chuck Todd's report at 5pm that the WH

"washed its hands" of Specter, and that they'd be OK with a Specter win, there are many viewers of Hardball who heard that, since Chris Matthews is taken very seriously in PA, and that hurt Sestak, too.

[totodeinhere]

12. And Howard Fineman just said on KO that the GOP could win back either or both houses of Congress.

And he can hardly conceal his glee at that pronouncement. What an ass.

[Blaukraut]

18. I'd like to know what he based that on

That people in PA voted for the Democrat who can beat the Republican? That teabagger/republican turnout in KY was dwarved by Dem turnout? That Murtha's seat was held by the Democrat even though the Republicans touted it as a bellweather for November? Or that Lincoln, the DINO can't crack the 50% ceiling in the AR Dem primary and that there may be a runoff?

Fineman talked out of his anal orifice tonight, like he does so many times.

[marlakay]

10. I think Obama knew exactly what was happening

he made deal with Spector to get his votes this last year but he really wanted Sestak to win...how could he not???

[ProSense]

13. ,

:rofl:

[FrenchieCat]

15. And that's what he got!

[craigmatic]

16. Now all he has to do is crush toomey

Go Sestak

[Dr Morbius]

17. They're gonna spin this as a loss for Obama.

And that's fine with me, because interpreting it as such means the electorate (of PA, anyway) is to the LEFT of the President and those with whom he's most comfortable. Meanwhile, I've been familiar with Joe Sestak for a few years now. He'll campaign hard to win in November, and it's likely Obama will support him then. I think we (the Democrats) will keep this seat, even though the incumbent is tonight learning Pennsylvania voters think it's time to retire.

[IndianaGreen]

19. Kudos to the people of Pennsylvania for voting for Sestak

Bye, bye, Arlen. Thanks for the Single Bullet Theory, your legacy to the nation!

[Robbins]

24. Tonight

I turned on news after watching Lost and V and very happy with what has happened.

PA-Democrat has keep Murtha seat.Again since Obama took office every special House election has gone to Democrats.That will probally end with Hawaii because 2 Democrats
are fighting It off.Sestak has beaten mr Magic Bullet.Toomey has a tougher opporonent.

Arkansas-we have a runoff but consider this.If the votes hold as they are now Lincoln
only beat halder by 2 percent.No poll had It this close.Lincoln could lose a runoff.

Kentuckey-Jack Conway was considered the strongest Democrat.And the tea bagers got
their candiate In rand Paul who was opposed by the Republican establishent.

The tea bagers lost by losing the PA House election.

The MSM can say this Is bad all they want.This Is good night for Democrats.

[FrenchieCat]

26. Aye!

:bounce:

[DCBob]

28. Absolutely! Very good night indeed.

BTW, Drudge already has a headline "Obama 0-4, NJ,VA,MA,PA".

[tomm2thumbs]

29. Drudge is so pathetic, he's just Fox-lite for the 07% of the GOP that can actually read

and I'm being generous with that number
