Good for the Blue. Blue team still got a drubbing. Celebrating a victory in CT is like celebrating the win of your JV team while after the lost of the Varsity the day after Homecoming.

...she boasts of a minor victory in CT, but overlooked what happened in Kennedy country. Didn't MA pick up something RED this past year?

I'll take a NET of 63 seats while LJ attempts to make us look bad over the onezies and twozies. Sounds like typical socialist/liberal tactics. If you didn't win all the track and field events you are a loser, even if you had more GOLD medal podium appearances.

We'll also take Patty Murray in Washington...And Harry Reid in Nevada, and Coons in Delaware, and better Murkowski in Alaska than the wingnut, Miller....

Hey, it was a bad year...We'll take what we can get...

Conneticut Republicans should just be happy the race was that close.

When you're loosing the game, you'll cheer if the QB doesn't get sacked, right?

Then you'll start looking forward to the next game.

We understand, LJ - we were there in the last elections :D

Miller still has a good shot at beating Murkowski in Alaska. The 'Write in' is only up by 13,000 votes and they are starting to count the early mail in ballots today. There are 37,000 of them and many are from military. Most voters would not mail in a 'write in' candidate. So if he gets 2 to 1 for him. That is a gain of about 13,000 votes. Also they say the average fall out for write in is about 8% not filled out properly, so she will lose many votes there. Out of 81,000 votes that could be as much as 6-7 thousand. Not to mention there were 167 other candidates who were on the write in so some of those will go to other candidates. So he may only be down to her by 7000 or less votes before the mail in ballots are counted. SO even if it goes 20,000 - 10,000 - 7,000 fot the 3 candidates, then he gains 10,000. He has a real shot at pulling this out this week.
