keep Schmidty going, he's hilarious tonight....

Tell me more about the whore!!

KWhit · 11-07-2006, 10:40 PM

Nice.

DaddyTorgo · 11-07-2006, 10:42 PM

6k votes with 2% left in VA according to CNN.

DaddyTorgo · 11-07-2006, 10:43 PM

very very early in MT, but Tester is in the early lead

Swaggs · 11-07-2006, 10:43 PM

I'm surprised at the numbers in Pennsylvania.

Casey looks like he is leading 60-40 w/ 80% in. That is a pretty huge margin.

larrymcg421 · 11-07-2006, 10:44 PM

Looking at the Tennessee race, there are basically two major counties left, Davidson and Shelby. Ford is doing terrific in those places. He should be able to squeeze out another 40,000 vote margin out of Davidson. The question is how much is left in Shelby.

Normally I wouldn't care QUITE as much, but the fact that she messed with my dad (the sweetest, most awesome person I know) and the rest of the state workers, basically pushed me over the edge.

I despise Republicans and Democrats, but the fact that the idiots of SE MI can't get the fact that their Governess is a terrible failure, throws me into a huge frenzy. My wife just left the room laughing and saying that I'm "raving again". Oh the fuck Well.

You're cool!

If Schmidty had a blog, I would read it.

Allen's lead is down to 2500 with 99% precincts reporting.

DaddyTorgo · 11-07-2006, 10:49 PM

according to CNN the remaining votes in MD are coming from Dem districts so they stand by the call

This should go to the wire, though I hear what is left are Democrat areas.

kruseman · 11-07-2006, 10:51 PM

Webb is winning now.

ISiddiqui · 11-07-2006, 10:51 PM

Webb passing Allen CNN says.

DaddyTorgo · 11-07-2006, 10:52 PM

CNN has Webb up by 3k votes with 99% in

MrBigglesworth · 11-07-2006, 10:52 PM

Webb ahead!

Swaggs · 11-07-2006, 10:52 PM

Looks like VA will come down to absentee and provisionals. I wonder if absentees have already been counted or not...

MrBigglesworth · 11-07-2006, 10:53 PM

...precincts left are heavily democratic, with Webb in the lead. Fearless prognostication: this will get nasty.

Yeah, Montgomery Co. just dumped a huge number of votes, and there are chunks from PG and Baltimore City still left - this isn't even going to be that close.

kruseman · 11-07-2006, 10:53 PM

Fox News is talking about Missouri going to Democrats - most of the votes left are in the St Louis area, and they think they will be able take it with those votes.

I'm not going to say anymore or else I'll sound worse than I already do.

Hey, Schmidty, FUCK YOU DUDE. Yeah, fuck the stupid suburbs, asshole. Concentrate your rage on the ignorance of detroit voters and again FUCK YOU. I live in a suburb and its the farthest thing from "detroit" in all aspects you could possibly imagine. Detroit as 10% of the State's total population, what the hell do you expect?

Carvill just said the same on CNN. This means that the Senate could come down to Montana...

SackAttack · 11-07-2006, 10:56 PM

CNN.com is reporting a 3k vote lead for Webb with 99% of precincts counted, cartman.

Maybe she didn't mess with their dads?

DaddyTorgo · 11-07-2006, 10:56 PM

Carville (sp) on CNN was just babbling about the whole thing coming down to MT if Webb and Missouri's guy pull it out. Looks like MT is definately leaning Dem too...16% lead for Tester still in the early returns.

Yep, I was so used to seeing Allen in the lead, I thought that the lead had shrunk, not swapped places.

Tuesday's LA Times mentioned that the entire population - or perhaps I misread and it's the voter-eligible population - of Montana is something like a million folks (they reported that 300,000 people had been called by both parties to get out and vote, and that that number represents 1/3 of the state's population).

85k votes cast already, you gotta wonder how surmountable Tester's 14k vote lead is.

Is a chance of a spilt in the Senate possible (25 seats each; counting Lieberman as a Dem)?

Galaxy · 11-07-2006, 11:02 PM

Is this election a hot subject around the world? Or do they mainly focus on the Presidential elections?

ISiddiqui · 11-07-2006, 11:02 PM

Yes there is a chance, but I think it falls a seat short.

Swaggs · 11-07-2006, 11:03 PM

A split with 48 Dems + 2 Indies AND 50 Repubs is possible.

Bonegavel · 11-07-2006, 11:03 PM

Congrats dems! It will be an interesting 2 years.

This particular one may be, because it'll reign in Bush, who is, frankly, hated by every other country.

No, but a split of 50 each if very plausible. The GOP needs to win 2 out of Tenn, VA, MO, and MT for that to happen. I would call that the most plausible scenario.

k0ruptr · 11-07-2006, 11:04 PM

fuckin hell, gotta watch shitty election coverage, I wanted to see Friday Night Lights tonite damnit.

MrBigglesworth · 11-07-2006, 11:05 PM

Current Dem tally:

Senate: +3
House: +20
Gov.: +6

About time.

Yet the people of said countries strongly desire to come here. A bit of a hyperbole, don't you think?

Having lived overseas from 2002-2004, it's not much hyperbole.

MrBigglesworth · 11-07-2006, 11:07 PM

PA-8 will come down to the wire: 113,672 to 112,260 89% with the Dem challenger in the lead. This was the suburban Philly race that was considered the best shot for the GOP to hold onto.

Lots of Americans hated Clinton. Doesn't mean they hated their country.

By the same token, folks can want to come here to make a better life for them and their families and still hate the man in the White House. Far as I know, nothing in immigration law says you have to love "Our Leader" to become a citizen.

Izulde · 11-07-2006, 11:12 PM

Yay, Doyle got re-elected!

I'm ticked that the marriage amendment passed, though. I'm just glad the death penalty was advisory only in referendum and that there's no way in hell Doyle's going to let it get back in while he's in office.

Buccaneer · 11-07-2006, 11:13 PM

I know that, but according to international polls (at least the one I recall from a couple years ago), US being the sole superpower plays into it.

Why? They know the current President can't serve beyond Jan 2009. They realize that Clinton used to be President of the US. They know someone else will be the Prez in a few years.

larrymcg421 · 11-07-2006, 11:17 PM

By the way, weren't all the Republicans celebrating when Howard Dean was named DNC chair, as if this would become some kind of disaster for the Dems? What happened?
