Saxby is a pig.

6. Wait until Atlanta comes in

[nc4bo]

2. Hang in there, it's very early yet. nt

[gristy]

3. Rural counties always report first,so Republicans always do better in the beginning.

Just 1% reporting.

[fascisthunter]

5. if that's true then these numbers make sense

[Midlodemocrat]

7. Not the case here. Suburb went for McCain with 1%, but

the state went for Obama. Let's be careful about generalizations.

[Midlodemocrat]

4. First reporting county in VA went for McCain. Keep the faith.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. I'm keeping it, my dear Midlo!

I'm hoping that because it is early, there's hope yet...

*sigh*

[Hekate]

9. I hope Martin doesn't concede too soon; however with 2% of the votes it's a rout so far

69.7% for Chambliss
I hope everyone's right about the rural vote being all he has -- that is, if the population has shifted to urban areas, which I don't know about.

10. Ouch....

[Danger Mouse]

11. All we can do is wait and hope.

[BeyondGeography]

12. I'd fall off my chair if Martin wins this

Hope I fall. Doubt I will.

[usregimechange]

13. Watch the Atlanta Burb counties w large pops, they are right wing strongholds

Gwinnett for example.

[kansasblue]

[Beaverhausen]

19. it's getting closer but is there really any hope for Martin?

[Seen the light]

20. Down 220,000 with 47% in?

It's over.

[Colobo]

23. Yep- Martin had no chance.

[CitizenPatriot]

22. damn, I forgot to make sure Chambliss was born here.

any chance we can take a page from freetards and sue to see his birth certificate and proof of being a human being??? You do have to be human to be elected, right???

[PCIntern]

[usregimechange]

24. Martin losing Fulton county, no way in hell that should happen

[GreenPartyVoter]
