Like any team that loses, even dethroned champions, they pick themselves up, dust themselves off and get right back into it. There is another vote in two years.

Yes, there is another vote in two years. But, we can't afford to sit back and chill. We still need to be involved, contact our reps and continue to mobilize. This goes for locally as well as nationally.

Amen to that!!!

We have a lot of work to do--expecially to combat the vicious lies and misinformation about the President and his agenda for the nation. As far as I am concerned, the biggest winner in this election was UNTRUTH!

Amen to that!!!

There is a lot of work to do. Job number one is to just tell the truth. It was overwhelming to combat the avalnache of lies and misinformation thrown by the opposition. Those who support the President and his vision for the country need to find a way to let the voice of reason be heard.

When people are afraid, the first thing to go is reason.

I am so disappointed with this past elections!!

Richard Kigel Friday, November 5th 2010 at 1:57PM

Me too, man.

I can't believe that the state of Florida voted to send a man to its statehouse whose was CEO of a company fined for Medicare fraud.

I can't believe the state of Arizona voted to seat a governor whose response to the simple question "why do you want to be governer" reulsted in about fifteen seconds of embarassed silence, followed by incomprehensible babble.

I can't believe the new House Majority leader thinks we have the number one Health Care system in the world.

I can't believe...

well I can't go on.

It all comes down to this, as Mozell says, and as Irma alwauys reminds us: just "tell the truth". And EDUCATE!!! EDUCATE!!! EDUCATE!!!

And don't give up!!!

Richard Kigel Friday, November 5th 2010 at 2:25PM

Right, Cynthia...You tell em!!!

Only 52% of registered voters voted. We are mistaken to call this the mid-terms. We vote for Congress every 2 years. Says so right in the Constitution (I think).

Adam Fate Friday, November 5th 2010 at 9:54PM

Maybe I better go check.

Adam Fate Friday, November 5th 2010 at 10:25PM

Okay, how hard should it be to find out the final count of Republican Senators in the 112th Congress? No I can't find it. I guess now all the guessing is over it's old news?

Republicans seek to help Miller in ballot count

The Associated Press

Friday, Nov. 5, 2010 | 10:31 a.m.

A group that supported Sen. Lisa Murkowski during the GOP primary is seeking support for her rival as the ballot count in Alaska's Senate race continues.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee is asking donors to commit from $25 to $100 to Joe Miller's campaign to help ensure a fair count. They've supported Miller's campaign since he won the primary, even after Murkowski mounted a write-in bid.

Election workers won't start counting absentee ballots until Tuesday. On Wednesday, they'll begin counting write-in ballots.

Both candidates are assembling teams to monitor the ballot count and raising money for the effort.

Others, including former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee also are asking donors to help Miller. He calls him "the true conservative outsider" in the race.

Adam Fate Friday, November 5th 2010 at 10:45PM

Okay, so it looks like 53-46 and Alaska's still counting?

Adam Fate Friday, November 5th 2010 at 10:46PM

What's everyone complaining about? Democrats have the President and Senate, and Republicans the House.
