We should just refer to this Country as the United States of the Koch Brothers from this day forward


From College Park, Maryland, I sit here devastated.

Hogan is a tea-party type Republican. He opposes handgun background checks, thinks everyone who wants to own an assault rifle should be able to have one. Crime is already up in this state and that is just what we need -- people walking around with assault rifles.

Do you want to know what happened? Non-stop ads running the last couple of weeks -- probably financed by the Koch Brothers -- touting all the tax increases during this administration. I could not believe it. And Brown did not answer them.

We should just rename the Country the United States of the Koch Brothers because they along with the other billionaires own the Country now. We are just the minions who are led to believe by the press and our corrupt politicians that we actually have honest elections here. It is inconceivable to me that there were so many virtual ties in tonight's elections and the Republicans had all the successes they did.

And I think I am done with MSNBC and its tilted reporting. I had to turn the television off. Keith Olbermann sure called it correctly when he started looking for another job so he could leave that network. He privately said with Comcast's partnering up with NBC, he (Olbermann) would be muzzled. I could not believe some of the comments, really stupid remarks, made by the panel this evening. One of the standout offenses was made by Andrea Mitchell who said in effect this loss would ruin O'Malley's chance to run for President in 2016.

The only honest broker was Ed, who was reporting in Florida. Clearly, he was disturbed by what he was seeing.

This is a nightmare, and I cannot believe people are blaming Obama.

It would have been nice to get rid of Durbin, too. I'm not sure what a Republican governor can do when Chicago still controls the state capitol, though.

Oh, I agree.  I'd love to get rid of douchebag Durbin.  Even if Rauner can't do a lot, at this point, it's just a pleasure to shove it in the dem's faces. :)

I want to thank everyone who participated in this thread, and the other one in the Politics forum, and the third one in the Rants and Raves non-public forum.

It was a great night, an uplifting night, a wonderful night, a thrilling night, an ecstatic night--sometimes the good guys do win, after all.

We all need to thank miskie, who kept the board running after problems developed; I dunno what we'd do, without him and Chris_ running things, and I personally am very grateful to both of them.

Onward and upward!

The GOP easily won the 218 seats required and was on track to match or surpass the 246 seats they held in President Harry S. Truman's administration more than 60 years ago.

Quote
Overall, the GOP gained 14 seats and counting; Democrats, just one.

Quote
Obama suffered an ignominious distinction. The president, whose party lost 63 seats in 2010, saw Democrats lose 12 seats and became the two-term president with the most midterm defeats, edging past Truman's 74 by one.

Illinois governors rarely get anything done.

They usually have only a couple of years before checking in to a federal prison.

Second Amendment Crushes Gun Control Candidates in Midterm Elections

As the election returns came in on November 4 one thing was evident—the Second Amendment crushed gun control candidates in Senate and gubernatorial races around the country.
 
In so doing, the Second Amendment annihilated the left's relentless claim that 90 percent of Americans support more gun control.....
