It's after midnight, so this one is going to read from the top down.
12:30 a.m. Claire just took the lead! Webb, McCaskill and Tester are all on top. If their leads hold, we just ran the fucking table.
Stem cells just pulled into the lead too. Hoo boy. The urban vote is breaking our way.
Remember the Texas 22? That one Tom DeLay used to represent? Well, Democrat Nick Lampson just took that seat.
The Missouri Senate race was just de-Claired for McCaskill by NBC and CBS. Stem Cells surged too. We just went purple, people.
1:15 a.m. TALENT JUST CONCEDED. Claire McCaskill is the junior Senator from Missouri. So much for this one being decided by the courts.
Tester is hanging tough in Montana. He leads 50% to 47% and had a margin of 8300 votes, with 69% of precincts reporting. Tester's going to pull it out.
1:40 a.m. Webb in Virginia "the votes are in and we won." Virginia political expert Larry Sabato has declared Virginia for Webb.
I just heard on the web that an announcement from Tester or Burns will be made in about 15 minutes.
So far we have picked up 26 seats in the house.
We now control 28 of 50 Governorships, since we picked up the Mansions in Massachusetts, Ohio, New York, Arkansas, Colorado and Maryland.
Eight ball in the corner pocket and game over. We just ran the table.
2:00 a.m. and it is tme we start working on the boy king's vocabulary words for the next week. The first word he needs to learn the meaning of is Mandate. The second word on the list is Rebuke. Meanwhile, Karl is more Turd than Blossom these days, it looks like. Sweet, sweet revenge.It looks like there will be a recount in Virginia, that one won't be known for a day or two. It also looks like the New Mexico 01 is going to have a recount as well. With 99% of precincts reporting, only a thousand votes separate Patricia Madrid and heather Wilson. Rejection of Wilson would be seen as strong repudiation of the Bush administration and its policies.
2:20 a.m. Local initiatives - Missouri gave our minimum wage workers a raise and amended the constitution to protect medical research from over-zealous prosecution by a wing-nut state legislature. And Colorado failed to legalize reefer. Try again, guys. How can anyone be against a plant that is a cure for PMS?
3:30 a.m. Montana is still pending. Billings, Bozeman and the indian vote need to be counted. It's a nail-biter but I'm feeling good about Montana.
4:30 a.m. Montana is still pending. Virginia is still holding for Webb and Tester is still ahead in Montana. In fact, Tester has widened the gap by a couple thousand votes.
I am headed off to get a couple of hours of shut-eye, but I will stand by this prognostication...Dems run the table. We have the house, we have the Governorships, and we are taking the senate.
Turd Blossom, I just made you my bitch.
