That is so sad, but maybe good for us. Schummer would have taken his place and is a lot smarter. Reid is going to be pissed and try and block everything that comes out of the Republican House and nothing will get done, and it will really hurt Obama and the Dems for the 2012 election. That race and the Republicans not taking the Senate may just make sure Obama is a one term President and the next election will be a lot more gains for the R's.
Crap. Buck is stalled at about 8400 voted down, but there is still a lot of Republican counties to count according to the news. This will be a close one!

If you look at our predictions on here and most all polsters, that was always predicted. Not really breaking news. But 60 seats in the House is a lot higher than most predicted a month or so ago. And the Governors almost all went R in the close races. That is what is the biggest news for the redistricting and 2012 election.
