Sestak leading Toomey in PA senate race - 73%-27%!!!!

[old mark]

This is almost exactly the same margin that Sestak had over Specter in the primary!

Sadly, Onorato is now trailing Corbett for PA Governor, but only by a few hundred votes...it is too close to call.

5. Onorato is now leading.

Onorato 71% - Corbett 29%

And

Sestak 69% - Toomey 31%

Of course that's with only 2% of the vote in. It could still go either way.

7. Go Onorato!

6. Good. I hope he wins. Supported him in the primary but had no money for

the general. If he can win this would be one of the highlights of the day.

12. Sestak and Onorato both lost, as you all now know - ALL the candidates but one

on our PA6 straight Democratic ticket lost - State Rep Dante Santoni won another term...Congratulations Dante - I still have your sign in my front window. You may be one of the few Dems left in Pennsylvania politics by morning.

A really depressing disaster here in PA...teh 'publicans will be insufferable now.

13. How do we fight ignorance?

Especially willful ignorance?

And how do we fight corporate money? That's the even bigger question.

[old mark]

14. How do we fight our own Democratic Administration, who will sure be blaming the

"liberals" for this loss...
Tweety had already started blamin the left last night for not voting for the Blue dogs, such as Lincoln...This will be just the beginning...
