14. Now THAT's a possibility.
Good gesture to the DEM wing of the party... and I think even the senate wingnuts like him personally .

6. The sad thing is that..
..The candidate who didn't take outside money lost to the candidate that bought the election with help from third parties.

Thanks a lot, Supreme Court.

7. I am literally sick to my stomach.
Ron Johnson is shockingly sub-par. Russ Feingold is to me like Teddy Kennedy, an icon.

9. Those idiots who voted against Feingold voted against someone who puts people before corporations
Edited on Tue Nov-02-10 09:46 PM by still_one
We will see how it goes in the next six years for them, and for the country

If there was anyone who voted against those that caused the problems we are in it was Feingold

22. That one's a real head-scratcher.....
...... proof that there's a high degree of irrationality among a lot of voters.

25. I dont get it...
How could he lose? They are talking about it now on MSNBC. I just don't understand it. Rachel is talking about money, but I agree with mr. last word, I doubt buy it when you look at Fiorina and McMahon

27. What a shitty night. I keep remembering how elated I was in 2006,
coming home late from working at the polls, not even knowing the outcome. My sister was home and greeted me with the great news. Now she's gone, and so. it seems, is my Party.
