[polichick]

[Clio the Leo]

[Clio the Leo]

6. Howard Fineman can go somewhere and get stuffed.

(sorry if you missed what he said, not worth repeating)

[Ghost of Tom Joad]

[Clio the Leo]

7. "the GOP's path in the Senate got a bit harder tonight."

"I don't think there is any way of sugarcoating the fact that the GOP's path in the Senate got a bit harder tonight."

9. At first those on MSNBC said if Specter loses by 2 or 3%, Obama will be blamed for not

working harder to "put him over the edge" but now that it looks like he'll lose by at least 6%, they're STILL blaming Obama. :eyes:

10. Incumbent replacement fever seems to be more on the Rethug side

McConnell's boy got spanked. Another douchebag resigned in Indiana due to a hypocritical affair.
A former rethug got spanked.

The way these primaries are shaping up, it's more a referendum on the GOP side than our side.

[Clio the Leo]

11. "Tim Burns just conceded to Mark Critz"

WHOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Clio the Leo]

12. Meanwhile, back in Arkansas (20%): Lincoln 48%, Halter 39%, Morrison 13%

[tishaLA]

13. I'm petty but I really hope Lincoln doesn't get to 50%

in my heart, I think she's going to be the Democratic nominee eventually, but I want to see her have to fight harder for it.

[Clio the Leo]

14. duh.....

... I was staying out of the PA-Sen race because I generally dont like to see Dems primarying other Dems but even *I* want Lincoln out of Washington! :)

[Clio the Leo]

15. AR-Sen -D (27%) - Lincoln 44, Halter 41, Morrison 14 NT

[Dr Morbius]

16. Different sources have different numbers on that one.

I suspect it may be quite a while before the numbers separate, if they do.

[Clio the Leo]

19. lol, well share!

what sources?

[Arugula Latte]

17. Oooh, Blanchey might have a run-off on her hands.

*rubs hands together gleefully*

[Clio the Leo]

18. NRCC Chair calls PA-12 loss "undoubtedly disappointing"

[Clio the Leo]

20. AR-Sen-D (32%) Lincoln 44%, Halter 42%, Morrison 14%.....

.... but most of Lincoln's district has not reported apparently.

[Bryn]

21. I am soooo nervous!

I want Blanche to go down so badly! The race is very hot.

[left is right]

22. Kentucky results:

With 99% of votes counted, total votes cast 862,509. All repukes received 34,8850 or 40% of all votes. All Dems 51,3659 total votes or 60%. Paul got 59% of all repuke votes but didn’t come close to Conway. I am in Indiana so the only thing that I cared about was the overall percentage. I think DEMS did real well

[Clio the Leo]

23. Numerous news sources reporting there WILL be a run-off in Arkansas.

So we get to do this ALL over again on June 8th. ..... What will the DNC et al do differently?

[rasputin1952]

24. Listening to Rand Paul...

Is this man an idiot?

He sounds as if he's about as smart as a brick...charisma of sphagnum moss...and he looks like a semi-animated corpse...:eyes:

[Clio the Leo]

25. Dems also out-voting GOP in Arkansas....

... not sure how this fits with the normal pattern though.

Dems voters: 189,118

GOP voters: 60,498

(of the votes counted so far)

[Clio the Leo]

26. DNC congratulates Sestak...

... in a weird, half hearted way...

Democratic voters in Pennsylvania have decided that Congressman Sestak is the best man to fight for them in Washington.
