Looking at that graphic, I’m thinking the elephant could put a glove on the end of his trunk and wail on that sad sack donkey while staying out of reach.

Hey, use your advantages.

“…a skinny guy with a thin resume…”?

How about a skinny guy with big ears who had virtually NO resume, and absolutely no resume as leader of anything, from playground dope-smoking gang to CEO of a small business!

I’d love to see Ellmers knock off Etheridge. I still say that buffoon had been drinking before he put a headlock on that student-journalist.

From MSDNC:

Yes, the Obama White House has been more transparent than its predecessors and has implemented rules to discourage the revolving door between public service and lobbying.

You have got to be kidding me. They’ve obviously ate the wrong mushrooms at lunch today. /:)

Polls just now closed in Indiana, and Fox has already called the first GOP Senate gain of the night. Time to drink a toast to the voters of Indiana.

On second thought, if I do that all night, I’ll get alcohol poisoning before 10pm…. :)

I have one TV tuned to Fox News and one on msnbc (and a big bowl of popcorn). Meet the Depressed on msnbc is so shallowly predictable. Anyway, the funniest thing I just heard in their spin is how tonight is just a wash. Here’s how they tried to spin it: They claim the Republicans are rejoicing how easily they will take both the House and Senate. The Dems are merely hopeful that they will keep both. However, even if the Republicans take the House then it’s just basically a wash, in other words a tie.

I’m howling with laughter.

If you want a double dose of good entertainment switch over to msnbc occasionally to watch how hard they are spinning. I can almost feel the Earths gravity shifting.

Fox just projected that the GOP will take the House (9:12pm).

From my congressional district (NJ-03): The local PBS network (NJN) hasn’t called the race yet, but the incumbent Democrat just conceded. Jon Runyan is leading him by 55-42 with about 47% of the votes in.

Champagne, anyone??

It’s a wonder to me the republic survived as long as it has, considering New York keeps sending back the idiot Schumer, Illinois will elect a mob crook, Washington will find a way to override Dino Rossi once again with the biggest failure of public education ever to walk at least semi-upright, and CA keeps sending sleaze-buckets back to D.C. that hate the United States but are supposedly qualified to help run the country?

It appears the Repubs will take over the House, still won’t win the Senate, will have the majority of governors, and still not be able to back the tin god away from his destruction of the country.

Looks like Ellmers may be the lone GOP pick up in the US House in NC!

Nationally, there are some very good people who are either returning to DC or who won their races. LtCol Allen West won his bid for a House seat in Florida, Pat Toomey is going to the Senate, Michelle Bachmann (who the libs hate with a Palinesque passion) won, and Nikki Haley will be governor of SC. And one of the most loathesome creatures ever to slither through the halls of Congress, Alan Grayson, is gone.

But I do agree with Carlos for the most part. America would be much better off if we could convince the entire West Coast and NY to secede, and don’t let the door hit them in the a$$ on the way out.

Well, a refreshing breeze (hurricane) has swept across PA and this morning I find that we have a new Republican Governor, Senator and a multitude of new house reps! Oh, wasn’t Obama busy campaigning here in PA???? The voters of PA have spoken. I had my doubts, but everyone I talked to seemed to have had enough of the democrats in the statehouse (i.e. Rendell) who refused to do the people’s work and turn off the tax faucet and leaky pipes of our state legislators.

That said, now comes the hard work of rehabilitating state pension funding (which is one primary source of debt),entitlement programs, dealing with waste and cronyism and becoming a state that creates an atmosphere of growth for business to create jobs and begins to use our natural resources to the best effect for all the people here in PA. Good Luck! We will be watching. We will expect results.

we got rid of one of pelosi’s minions here in S.C., John Spratt…been voting against this guy for 20 year….don’t forget to turn off the lights, john. LOL

You can thank us Pennsylvanians! Pat Toomey completed the humiliation of Arlen Specter, by defeating the guy who knocked Senator Specter out of the race. We elected a Republican governor, had five of the Democrat-to-Republican House seat captures, and elected Republicans to control both Houses of the General Assembly.

When I went to bed last night, Joe Sestak was still in the lead, and I was depressed; when I arose and saw that Mr Toomey had won, it was like another sunrise.

GWR: I hate the Eagles, but it’s good to see Jon Runyan win!
Dana says:

And in my congressional district, Lou Barletta finally — on his third try! — retired Krooked Paul Kanjorski!

So happy for PA today, Dana! Ecstatic about the Toomey win, considering what happened last time around when he tried to defeat Specter in the primary.

GWR,

I’ve never rooted for an Iggle in my life, until one ran for office. 🙂

Good job, Representative Runyan! :d

Don’t forget Marxachusetts.
