Rubio crushes in Florida, beating out upstart asshat infiltrator Charlie Crist, who will now have trouble getting elected emu-catcher in South Florida. Better yet, evil jerk Alan Grayson (D-FL), of Trader Caddy’s district, just went down by about 20 percentage points. He is now free to contract on as Keith Olbermann’s sidekick on Mess-NBC.
On the sad side of the ledger, Joe Manchin (D-WV) is being called for the win in West Virginia, taking on the Dead Klansman’s seat and retaining it for the Dems. This one hurts, as the GOP was hoping to take the whole Cap & Trade issue to the hoop in West Virginia. Manchin, wisely, noted the polls and quickly made a commercial showing him shooting the bill with a rifle, and thereby retained the seat. I scheiss you not.
The interesting point of the above win, however, is that Manchin– who is only elected to serve out the Klansman’s final two years — will have to run again in 2012,. It’s quite possible, therefore, that we can add him to the GOP roles anyway, as he will have to run anti-Obama in every Senate vote just to survive. Note well — Cap & Trade (an attack on coal dependent WV) and Healthcare have left Obama with a 29% approval rating in West Virginia.
Also, closer to the home of JakeGint, the horrid leftist John Yarmouth (D-KY) has retained his seat as well. I feel this is an unfortunate loss in a critical year, and the result of a good, but inexperienced opponent on the Rep side. Listen, Louisville (the bulk of KY-3) is a pretty liberal town, and also a union town, but we are not as liberal as this Obama lackey, this silver spoon plutocrat, Yarmouth. We will work hard to send him home with Obama in 2012.
The bonus, is that over the river, in Southern Indiana, Baron Hill (D-IN), went down in flames, after running a particularly nasty campaign full of ridiculous and expensive tv ads. Todd Young should be there for years to come, as he is a strong Marine, and prosecutor with a great family and a great attitude. Read more about him here.
More news as it comes….

Synopsis: My home state is freaking doomed.
Update: Congratulations to my friend and fellow conservative Mr. Cain Thaler, who once again, enjoys a Republican governor — Rick Snyder, for the win in Michigan!

Don’t forget the TN gubnah pickup.
Congrats MOOBS
For what its worth, Bredesen was a moderate dem. He did a good job. Can’t say too much bad about him.
That was a “foregone conclusion” in my book. In Michigan, Snyder is replacing a true commie in Granholm.
Hot, but a commie, nonetheless.
____________
Sadly, Granholm shall not disappear.
Towards the end, she was largely absent from the scene, only stopping by to throw massive grants for research towards clean energy and other buzz topics of the day.
She lost interest in governing years ago:
The Democrats have plans for her. Look for her to take up control of a government agency (perhaps even the EPA, given the role they had her take here) at the first availability.
Mr. Thaler! You’re from Michigan? Nice to know there is someone else on this site that manages to exist here in our beautiful but totally screwed up state.
I have to agree that Granholm will emerge from this with a nice Washington DC job. Possibly as high as cabinet level if the opportunity presents. She is a lot like the O man in some ways. Eloquent speaker, able to stir up the base, savvy as to the political winds that swirl round her. She’ll be back somewhere in some form.
Ever get around the Cadillac/Houghton Lake area? Look me up.
I hele a fellow then; I love this state. It’s beautiful and the people are so stupid, a man with a regular salary can go a long way, provided he knows the right people, and a man with a simple fortune can be emperor.
You already know, the trick is to know where to be. We have some of the richest county’s in the country, which we carefully keep secret behind the poorest. haha.
What is your profession? Feel free to drop by and chat on any of my posts. I’ll be KOPG this month, so don’t be a stranger.
Republic or Democrat – The US is doomed. That’s the sad truth.
Rubio went to my law school :).
I went to High School in Miami with Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen where she was the newspaper editor and I was the sports editor.
She is damn good.
Was he a good guy, despite wanting to be a lawyer? 😉

Rand Paul 2012….Deal with it
(laughter) These pricks are carrying on about Rand Paul now, saying that if he filibusters a raise of the debt cealing, it will force a default of the entire United States Government immediately and destroy the world.
Fucking idiots, they seem to be assuming that the United States would be incapable of making cuts and paying taxes IF FORCED TO DO SO. I hope Paul does filibuster. Let’s see all Congressmen vote to cut Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid.
Now maybe we can get some more tax cuts to fix this deficit.
Actually, when taxes are cut, revenue goes up because it broadens the tax base. It happened when Reagan made sweeping tax cuts and it happened again when Bush cut taxes.
The problem is that when Congress spends more than they take in, the deficit increases. In both cases, Congress spent all of the extra revenue and much more, and then they blamed the deficit on Tax Cuts.
Don’t confuse Astro-Puppet Tom with economic reality. He’s hoping we can up taxes and spending.

Interesting to watch US House District 22 (condo country in S. Florida) where Col. Allen West is up on perennial Rep. Ron Klein.
Those old people in Tamarac may have finally come to their senses but it will be close.

Unfortunately, it looks like Mobster Ginoulias (sp?) and Sleestak in PA are holding current leads.
Not good for bipartisanship.

Thank you for the kind words, Mr. Gint. I will enjoy having someone in higher office that doesn’t make me want to drink cyanide.
Gov race in Ohio is a close one…
Kasich should really win this but who knows.
As another Ohioan once said — “If it’s not close, they can’t cheat.”
Looks like they may be able to cheat on this one.

” I scheiss you not.” Sorry but I’m going to have to steal this one. Just too frick’in funny.
Glad to see Rubio won!
All yours. I’m glad for Rubio too… I think he will be a star for a long time in the GOP.

NY stays solidly Blue. Even my sh*tbox congressional district around Syracuse will stay blue courtesy of imported shitbags from NYC. Asshat central. We need to forceably repatriate all NYC and LI residents to the pit of hell that is NYC and give us our economy back. Cut off all fucknuts south of I-84 and consign them to continuous looping feeds of Chuck Schumer’s Greatest Speeches. The state GOP can’t even run a credible candidate for Senate or Gov. What a joke. And after the 53% tax raise my town is geting shoved up their azz, courtesy of Albany (read: NYC/LI pols), word: Fuck Albany and every politician from NYC and LI and every state worker union in existence.
Move out. Take your value with you.
I’d rather separate from downstate scum and let them eat their own chit.
Unfortunately, the down state scum are paying most of the taxes right now. Fly would be among them, for example.
And my Mom, so “watch it.”

I feel your pain. You realize that your real problem is only that you haven’t left yet, right?
Like rats leaving the sinking ship… the non-Dems are getting the flu out of there. If you don’t leave, they won’t get the lesson, and they will start to think you like having your wallet lifted on a regular basis.
53% taxation! That is fucking CRIMINAL!

Joanie Mahoney – Onondaga County Kommisar – RINO. Utter scum. When I’m not working at splitting atoms and banking coin the new mission is to target Albany.
Great to see you blogging like mad Jake! Thank you. I’ve got my Blueberry K-cup here and tuned into iBC. This is fun. Thanks.
You’re welcome… I had to get to the home base before I could begin blogging like the wind.

Hey Jake:
Unfortunately, it looks like Barny Frank will win. I thought we had a chance but he came from behind and creamed his opponent.
LOFL! Thanks for the laugh among the disappointment. I really liked that Marine who Frank was running against.
Shows the hard communism of his district that they’d put that crook back in the box.

Damnit!! Barney Frank got re-elected. I mean, what do you have to do to lose a job in this country?
And ACORN announces bankruptcy!!
My God, can today get any better? Will Ahmadinejad drop dead from aids?
Boxer wins. Jerry Brown wins.
I hope California goes bankrupt.
Hell yeah. Like when I have squirrels fucking with my shit, I shoot them and tack them to the shed as a warning to the others.
That is what California needs to be to the rest of the states in the union- the squirrel nailed to the fucking shed.
The EMU nailed to the Shed!

Positive proof that intelligent life in Cowleefownia is now out numbered by the koolaid drinking self adoration crowd. They are screwed. I’m going to call my Bro in law in Mission Viejo and tell him to get out while the gettin is still halfway decent. They are screwed.
Likely, the pot prop brought out the super-left in droves.
Ah, poor California!
So beautiful, so rich, and so full of stupid, stupid people.
